Yep! I lived in Las Cruces (Southern New Mexico) for many years which is just 45 minutes north of my hometown of El Paso, Texas. Las Cruces had many opportunities to have manufacturing come into the outskirts of the town, which would allow the poor, mostly Hispanic population to have a chance to obtain well-paying jobs. The government would not give any tax breaks to the companies, of course, but above that...they didn't want the companies to come in at all and "ruin the charm of the small town feel." Which means, keep everyone poor with no opportunities. New Mexico is the 2nd poorest state in the US. You know who comes to Las Cruces? Retired wealthy people from the northeast US, they come in with all their money and the kinds of businesses that pop up are boutiques, high-end restaurants, aesthetics, plastic surgery, decor and furnishings...and guess who works in those places for low wages? Yeah.
The Mayor and his crooneys on the city council did the Same thing to my hometown in the BE Corner....
A Rich man from Amarillo came there to make more Money, added some 200 People to my town and about the same to the neighboring town, and he set up his HQ on our Main Street....
Well, he put a Solid Million into the School, we had Everything a school should have, you could have gone to school in Kinder and come out a Journeyman, or Certified Welder, Plumber, Mechanic, etc....
The Mayor got Jealous, and they literally ran him out of the County, Jobs and all....
The things I wanted to do to the Mayor and his City Council....
But, I went to the army instead....
I would've been the Biggest Homes Rental Guy in like six Counties....
And HE, Mr. Amarillo, would have happily paid all of the Rents, because they would have been all working for him....
The Possibilities were Endless, and one Mayor and his Buddies stole it all from Me and My County....
I'm so sorry. The elitists don't want just any old person to join their exclusive club of wealth. Heck, they don't even want us to have enough to pay all our bills, forcing us to have two jobs and then there isn't any time to notice what corruption they are up to. But they underestimate our abilities to work THREE jobs and still see them for what they are.
That's when I first learned about the Fish Pond analogy....
Which is better being a Big Fish in a little Pond, or a little Fish in a Big Pond???
I guess it all depends on the Level of Greed and Ambition....
Both are fraught with dangers. Either way, you become a target.
