ARE WE PAYING THE PENANCE FOR ELON MUSK'S GIFT TO BROWNSVILLE?

Special to El Rrun-Rrun

The gods punished Prometheus for stealing fire and giving it to humans by tying him to a rock and having a vulture come during the day and eating his liver, only to have it grow overnight and then having the vulture return the next day to devour it again...for eternity.

We got jobs at a rocket testing site from Musk's SpaceX, soaring property values, traffic congestion on Highway 4, a degraded tidal flat environment, limited access to public Boca Chica Beach, and cracked house foundations and shattered windows every time there is a launch. Higado encebollado, anyone? Think the tradeoff was worth it?

It is somewhat tardy to raise inquiries concerning SpaceX at this juncture. The transaction has been finalized, and Elon has remitted the agreed-upon sum to municipal and county officials. These corrupt politicians have each received their share of the proceeds. However, what of the general populace? We, the ordinary citizens, have simply inherited the financial burden. Perhaps you should reconsider your electoral choices before supporting the communist party. Anticipate the forthcoming year's property tax assessments.

And what does Steve Guerra think of all of this? I would love to know his stance on this … does he even have a stance on any of this? Speak up ….

We're a big fat target for a nuclear weapon. Your filthy politicians can't save you. Time to meet our creator. Just kidding? :D
