Lehigh Valley Growth. Bah Humbug
I say bah humbug to the explosive development going on throughout the Lehigh Valley. Who needs it. I sure don't.

More people means they need more jobs. More jobs more people. More, more, more of everything means.. Less fertile fields available for planting.
More schools means more taxes.
Less surplus water available.
With more people comes more crime.
With more crime comes more police funding that will be needed.
Increased driver aggravation with bottlenecks and accidents
I could list so many more issues but those would be my top six peeves.
