Welcome to the Coatesville Dems Blog

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

IBG-YBG I’ll Be Gone –You’ll Be Gone Tom Friedman


Politically, supporting science and promoting renewable energy is a slam dunk. When people understand, even Republicans fully understand the catastrophic consequences of Global Warming there will be general panic across the board.
People, all people, will be looking not just for someone to blame; they will be looking for vengeance.  



THOMAS FRIEDMAN: 
“I would argue that 2008, a year that we think that’s just about the Subprime Crisis, was more than that. 2008 was the year that both the market and Mother Nature got together and issued up a warning; You are growing in an unsustainable way, environmentally and economically. Turn back now. This is your warning heart attack. 
This was not just faulty accounting. There was also behind it a breakdown in values. The whole credit bubble was built on the twin principles of IBG and YBG; I’ll Be Gone or You’ll Be Gone when things go bad. 
We’ve been practicing the same IBG/YBG principles in Nature; which is why the World Wildlife Fund’s in 2008 ‘Living Planet Report’ concluded, 'We are operating 25% above the planet’s biological capacity to support life on earth.’ 
No problem. ‘I’ll Be Gone’ 
 As WWF’s Director General observed, ‘The world is currently struggling with the consequences of over valuing it’s financial assets but a more fundamental crisis looms ahead an ecological credit crunch caused by undervaluing the environmental assets that are the basis of all life and prosperity. 
But then what do we care; WBG, We’ll Be Gone."
