21. What about
The mayor that supported Wal-Mart. In an area where the un-employment rate of young adults is about 16-25 percent (quote from mayor) the sales tax alone could have supported improving Inglewood. Also, it would have provided a great anchor for other business to come to Inglewood which its residence would actually spend money in Inglewood instead of going somewhere else. Lets face it, Wal-Mart will just go find a City that will let them build and they will get the projected 3 million a year in sales tax. The jobs that it creates are starter jobs yes. But it can be a vehicle for someone to work, go to school, and better themselves. Well Inglewood, your neighboring cities thanks you.

One last question, Mr. Jackson, where is Inglewood's 3 million dollars?

Maxine, what ever happened to "No Jobs No Peace".

Maxine you just disenfranchised your constituents and I blame you for the lack of jobs for your district.
