Bailout - taxpayers pay the richest people in the country super money so they can be richer. Example: AIG, Citicorp, US Sugar...

Way to be a good Republican Charlie. You have commandeered Florida taxpayer money and applied Neocon Republican usage of our money.

Nauseating. Rubbish. Folly. Stupid. Dumb... Can I cuss and swear now?? I learned a few choice phrases from some Alabama truck drivers that would apply.

They need the money to ensure the high 6 figure salary of the planner. The taxpayer ends up paying for this folly.

I'll bet the ethanol used in Florida is coming from Brazil. Ethanol cannot be blended for pipeline transportation. It is blended at the storage facilities.

Because of separation there is no way to ensure a 10% blend - depends on how long it sits at the fuel depot, gas station, or your vehicle.

I used to be an ethanol supporter until I made a 4,000 mile trip in my pickup two years ago. I kept mileage records and I bot 9/10 of a mile per gallon less with ethanol vs regular gas.

Now, in Florida where you used to not be able to buy ethanol, you can only by ethanol.

If it wasn't for government mandates and the 50 cent per gallon government subsidy to ethanol manufacturers, there would be no ethanol industry.

The government is to blame, once again.

Outrageous! From starting salary he is getting a 50% pay increase in three years. Do you think someone else is out there that will do the same job as him for $75,000?

These guys and their Jesus complex is just to much for me. To say he is responsible for all that goes on at Bayshore is to say that Thompson is responsible for Johnny passing his math test. Ridiculous and perfectly illustrates what's wrong with this bureaucracy we call a democracy today.

Drove by a few minutes ago. Saw 5 cops enter Naples Lakes off of 951, two fire engines, and one ambulance turn W on RH. I couldn't imagine what was going on.

80% of Collier County is all ready in public ownership. This program is baloney. They should terminate the funding and the ego maniac Conservation Collier board members.

spoconno - go visit Seminole State Park, Picayune Strand, Fakahatchee Strand, Everglades Park, the Conservancy, Naples Zoo, Veterans Park, the Beach, or any one of the dozens more publicly owned lands.

I always wonder where these guys get their money to support their drug and alcohol habit. He surely couldn't hold down a job.

This is great news. It won't be long until private enterprise will get to join the privileged Indians. Then our tax revenue and jobs will be truly replenished with another local industry. It can't come to soon.

And, beetle, if you don't like it, don't go. You can't tell me how I want to spend my leisure time and money!
