Vampires in Trumansburg?
Who has no fear of natural death and can exist for centuries?
Who’s long existence can acquire far more wealth than any individual could in their lifetime?
Who derives their strength from the flesh and blood of real human beings?
Who does not drink clean water or breath clean air?
Who can only be killed in an unequal contest that humans are likely to lose?
Who has the power to confuse people into acting in self destructive manners?
No, silly, vampires aren’t real – Corporations are.
Gas drilling corporations have leased parts of our village and the Village Board is doing nothing to stop them.
Health insurance corporations would like to profit off of our ambulance service, and the Village Board wants to facilitate the process!
The Supreme Court just delivered a giant gift to Corporate America, and a huge blow to democracy.

We are losing our democracy, we are sliding towards fascism, and that’s ok with the Village Board.
Allen, can you be more specific about where the gas drilling corps have leased parts of the village?
Jackie,
Go to tcgasmap.org and you will see that the recently annexed part of the Village is leased. I just noticed another smaller parcel. 3.9 acres on the North side of Cayuga St. between Prospect and King – this is a more densely populated area. I would hate to live next to it.
