  • People living in North Carolina's High Country are putting out the call for help in unconventional ways, as many deal with flooding, impassable roadways, power outages and failing cell phone service.

    Answer to the question nobody wanted to ask in the late 90's and early 2000's; what's the worst that could happen if we let these malignantly greedy Florida developers turn the 828 into a far North suburb of Atlanta, now that they're running out of decent real estate for overdeveloping in Florida??!? This is the answer to that question!!! This is what happens when you let malignantly greedy real estate people tailor building codes and losen steep slope restrictions for their explicit benefit, under the false pretense of 'affordable housing ' for systemically exploited work force in a global tourist destination (just like Florida, but worse for workers.) This nightmare is one of many consequences of paving paradise and putting up parking lots and poorly built apartments anywhere they'll fit!!!! Yet nothing will change. The overdevelopment will continue and no one will hold the corrupt local government officials accountable for their malfeasance!!!! There should be NO MORE STEEP SLOPE CONSTRUCTION PERMITS ISSUED. EVER!!!! GREED CAUSED THIS CRISIS!!!! #Ashelanta #Ashevegas #Asheville #828WasGreat

    People are so tribal. We should just say that we have human strength. We are strong because we have compassion for our fellow man. It doesn't matter what city or state or country or nation we live in. We are strong because of our extraordinary capacity as humans to act out of love for one another.

    America exists because some folks were looking for a place where they had absolute freedom to worship God without the interference of government. God so richly blessed that nation and its people. But with time, that once Godly nation chose to reject and turn away from God and his direction for our life. For the past 40+ years, the cries to oust God and deny his existence and Biblical teaching have steadily grown louder and stronger until today where we've reached a point where we closely resemble Sodom and Gomorrah. God gave them a chance too ... but wiped them off the face of the earth in disgust when it became clear there was no righteous among them. What we are experiencing today is the stuff you see when God removes his hand of protection from those who reject him. Unless hearts and minds change, we're in for a rough ride. I suggest everyone spend time in prayer. God is the only one who can help us turn this sinking ship around and the only place one can find true joy and absolute peace!!
