Failure to understand

After some well-deserved days away from the Triad, I'm back...and it is good to be back.
*********************************
The thing I can't understand is this...why is GCS almost being pressured by outside entities to move from N. Eugene to S. Elm?

This boondoggle has been reported in the N&R over the last couple of days and I'm trying to wrap my arms around this thing...but I haven't yet. See, while we're laying TEACHERS off right and left, there's no supply money whatsoever for the teachers that still have jobs, no money to fix leaky roofs, school lunch prices going up, but we have people who have basically told GCS brass that...they're moving to S. Elm.

I don't get it.

Not to mention that downtown essentially lacks MAJOR EMPLOYERS! Recent cutbacks at Lincoln Financial and United Guaranty only add to the desolate feeling in the Center City, and yet it is still being touted as a prime destination. Shouldn't we be doing everything we can to find new jobs and bringing them into town?

And what would happen to GCS' current Central Offices?

Not passing the smell test.

E.C. :)
