Vote Common good, not individual wants.

  We need most of all  leaders who are ecologically/environmentally educated, aware and willing to take Parsipanny into Post Development. Our economy has outlived its usefulness and does not advance the common good. We can have both ecology and economy. Any Mayors job would be to make sure our municipal labor pool is doing their jobs and if need be correct the problem through good management assessments. If needed perhaps create more work; for example our streets are dirty; especially North Beverwyck, dumping in the municipal receptacles is on-going, this should not be an impossible task.
  Waterview hopefully educated us all about protecting our remaining landscapes and water supplies. Land especially Waterview was a natural resources asset that works for us without costs.  Thinking it worthless land shows our present leaders lack of awareness and narrowness of mindset. Our Planning Board more than anything needs to be changed, they above all betrayed us all, being corporate, not community minded or caring. Pride in Parsippany easy to say, but its all our responsibility. Do something as simple as clean your street from litter, keep your immediate sewage clean from trash.

  Last, The Best thing that could happen to Parsippany now is belonging to the NJ Highlands Coalition Conformance this may educate and enlighten us all on our place and responsibility to a healthy and conscience future for us all. Good Water, Good People, Protect our dwindling resources ,or our children's future will inherit our shortcoming when we knew better to begin with, but for a few dollars in our pockets. Evolution, not progress. Corporate development is a dead end, full of trash, alienation. Corporations are not our friends, they have used the power of money to bring this nation that allowed them their latitudes of freedom to marginalize us into petty consumers for their profits which they deny us with their greed and privatized subversion of our republic. The corporate phenomena has actually caused us to be less caring, less considerate, self-centered and untrue to our our humanity.
