What this site is about:
- This site provides information that will help people better understand "economic development" initiatives and TIF districts.
- It opposes corporate/political consolidated investment groups across the nation. We oppose all public officials who are a part of private councils that are designed to perpetuate profits of a corporate invested collective, such as the ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL... i.e. public/private partnerships.
- Locally, this site is politically opposed to Mayor JOHN MOHR of LEXINGTON, IL because of his dealings with the EDC of McLean County; among other abuses.
- Globally, this site is opposed to the ROCKEFELLER family "for the inordinate influence" they wield over American/foreign political and economic institutions; among other abuses.
Who this site is for:
- LEXINGTONIANS who would like to publish a grievance against mayor JOHN MOHR.
- Americans who believe our political system has become overrun by corporate "special interests."
- Anyone who wants to better understand the "economic development" agenda; where it comes from and what consequences it has on communities.
- Anyone in the US who is living in a community that is currently under an "economic development" plan.
What this site hopes to accomplish:
- Explain what has gone on in LEXINGTON, IL - since the ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL arrived in McLean County in 2004.
- Illustrate the effects the ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL's policy and plans has had on our town; LEXINGTON, IL.
- Show how LEXINGTON, IL is only a small example of a growing issue that many municipalities are facing across the nation.
