To the Idiot who tried to blame this closing on Jim Ireton, yet I rejected his comment, this is in Carroll County. Must be the Fat Man again because he doesn't have the attention span to read articles all the way through.
ReplyDeleteWow,
ReplyDeletePeople are so cruel, to blame this on Jim, I mean come on he's been in office for a week? It took more then a week for this dealership to be closing..
The shore's economy doesnt look good at all. Considering the lack of jobs before the economic situation, the aftermath is gonna be ALOT of shore residents without jobs. Schaefer & Strohminger in Cambridge, Sherwood in Salisbury has condensed down from 3 lots to 1 and now this. The big question, when the economy bounces back where are ppl planning on working when the few jobs that are available arent there anymore??? Local leaders better start planning ahead now because the amount of poor ppl here is on the increase.
ReplyDeleteThat aint no sh@t right there, we have got to have manufacturing and construction jobs performed by legal licensed local people. Bring back the work.
