Controversy abounds over a large business wanting to move in to a Gettysburg address. Who better to fill us in than former president Abraham Lincoln?
That's right, Jill. Proponents of the project point out how it will generate hundreds of jobs for the people of South-Central Penmsylvania and Northern Maryland.
Critics, however, say that these would be low-level jobs, with all the benefits going to outsiders, and that this project would actually destroy many small, locally owned businesses.
There is also the issue of bringing in from miles around a clientele viewed as less-than-desirable, 24 hours, 7 days a week, so close to what many regard as hallowed ground.
I saw your report last night. You were talking about a Wal-Mart, weren't you?
Actually, it was a casino, but I can see the confusion. Plus, if the casino gets nixed, who's more likely to move into that land than the Walton Gang?
