A Bleak View of Orange County’s Future
I can’t help but wonder if the citizens of Newport Beach and Costa Mesa have noticed that there is an element of insanity taking over Orange County. Where has our common sense gone?
Right in front of our eyes, our infrastructure is being destroyed. Our streets and freeways are impassable, our parks are now for the exclusive use of illegal immigrants, El Toro is being converted to more homes, our hospitals are overwhelmed and our only airport is becoming too dangerous to use (let alone live under the flight path).
At this rate, our greatest assets -- our homes -- will become devalued to the point where we can’t give them away. Without a solid support system, how can anyone expect to live here in the future?
