3rd poorest city in palm beach county let’s be the first to build a reverse osmosis plant? Citizens are freaking out about the high cost of utility bills so as Golden said, “get used to living in a ghetto”. Suckers!
Our Reverse Osmosis plant was built in 2011 for $29.4 million. I don't recall the details of it but we have the best water around.
As far as the 3rd poorest city in Palm Beach County, yes that's probably true. We have a good percentage of our population now that have immigrated here from Spanish speaking countries, many of whom are not educated and make low salaries. The population for Hispanics is 44.2%. Blacks 18.9% and Whites are at 33%.
So, if living in a ghetto is true using her description, (I don't remember her saying that but I accept your memory of it) it is the policies of our local government through the years that encouraged illegals to come here that has brought down the standard of living in LWB.
The ones I see and hear complaining are white people who’s families supposedly have lived here for many generations about high home values, rents going up, utilities up, don’t want new development, they don’t want tourists ruining downtown!
These families have been here for so long and they have nothing to show fir it, struggling to pay rent that’s right these people are renting they don’t own anything after living here fir 100 years they are on the same page as an illegal immigrant paying rent.
Those illegals children are getting educated going to college, starting business getting jobs, just like the Irish, Polish, Chechs, Finns and the whites are going nowhere, endless mess. Sad.
@11:19...What's sad is YOU!
You and your ridiculous discrimination.
Go to a page where liberals hang out.
We "white" people to which you refer to as losers, believe in law and order, at least Republicans do. We believe people should enter our country the legal way. We don't believe that we should be supporting illegals in any way, shape or form.
TAKE A HIKE.

I have to comment on this post....It is a sad commentary on how Racism has become a tool of socialism in this country...and in Lake Worth.
There is no societal value in your attempting to stereotype "White people" like this. Whether you are white and an apologist for your own family money (this causing your socialist tendancies and overt Racist overtones) --- or, if you are some other race than white and you think acting and talking as a racist will somehow help fix racism wherever it may be--this is a sickness in our society that needs to be recognized ...and corrected.
There was no need to add the WHITE descriptor to your post--it is just racist and destroys any common sense you may have brought to the blog topic. . It does not add to the understanding, because a person with white skin has no natural propensity for this behavior--this is a lie, and you know it.
As to the illegals getting the benefits that should have been paid to legal Americans that needed this income support so that they could have a better future--this is very sick for you to brag about and be happy about as you seem to be. Legal immigrants and legal Americans in general --have a right to this government support you mentioned, and the better future lifestyle. Illegasls are criminals, and they will never deserve to take money from legal Americans. On another topic entirely, yes, we do need to streamline immigration in America, and make it possible for refugees and good hard working people with true skills to become LEGAL RESIDENTS of America in days or weeks, not the many years that is now the disgusting normal. But as disgusting as it is, this is not a justification for illegals getting anything beyond being deported. You don't steal from your neighbors so that you can give money to criminals you don't even know!
11:19 you do realize that the poor people here are subsidized by Biden and the socialist government. The whites that you refer to more than likely work or are retired and support all these poor that are getting free, free, free, everything.
Thanks, Dan at 2:28
So if 11:19 has to inject race into the conversation, how about this. Illegal immigration (the majority of whom are Hispanics)hurts Black and Hispanic LEGAL AMERICANS more than their White LEGAL AMERICAN counter parts. So 11:19 ,if you need emergency surgery, will you be hoping for the BEST surgeon or will you be holding out for the best BLACK/HISPANIC/ASIAN/NATIVE AMERICAN surgeon? 11:19, lets face it. You would probably think that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a bigoted racist for expecting Americans to judge other Americans by the content of their character,not by the color of their skin. You know what I think ,11:19 ? I think that you are an ignorant,bigoted racist .
All the people of Lake Worth will be thanking Joann for her vision and legacy of fresh water for decades to come.
Lake Worth is a dump filled with tons of crime and blight and bad leadership and people! No quality of life in this ghetto town!
