Water entrepreneurs

Friday, December 14, 2001

Dear Editor,

Concerning McCook's water problems: Only crystal-clear thinking will solve the city's acute water situation. Neither the cheap sophistries of the politician, nor the banal sentimentalities of the average concerned vocal citizen will supply residents with first-rate liquid.

How has America historically overcome difficulties?

Free enterprise, unfettered by government regulation and control.

The local water pollution problem can only be solved by the private-sector (outside of state restrictions).

By going into the water business, creative entrepreneurs, aided by technology and computers, could supply the city with abundant water at a fair and reasonable cost.

Rock-solid logic, free-flowing ideas, deep thinking and crystal-clear reasoning can and must solve our problems, not floods of watered-down opinion.

Steve Stramel,

McCook
