Commentary:
To all those in the Roofing Industry who have tiptoed around the public works/school roofing scam issue for 40 years, Administrators and School Board Members staying quiet, how's it working for ya?
As irate and fearful Roofing Contractors, Roof Consultants, uninvolved Roofing Manufacturers and uninvolved Architects and Engineers (who are savvy enough- and that's few and far between!), and now a GRANDMOTHER (for crying out loud!!!)Taxpayer Advocate know, that evil destroys lives, careers the perps have no right to, the financial health of a lot of hardworking folks who care about doing a good job, have ethics, etc.....not to mention countless billions at this point wasted on anything but educating the young to make a strong nation in the face of so much competition in the world.
Got that???
Without a doubt, such practices are evil to the core, and are eating this country from the inside out - just look at how many other illegally sole-sourced construction products and FF&E products are eating away at our resources - and for what?
In the roofing industry - this scam CLEARLY benefits its' raw resource suppliers - asphalt made from oil...and the last time I looked, dependence on oil is beyond an unmitigated pain in the ass, enriching a bunch of crazies who like to terrorize us...not to mention having cancerous side effects......and I am a REPUBLICAN saying this!!!!
Who needs any of them??? Why do we need "big" government due to being stupid enough to allow oil-rich countries to take us and then terrorize us, which would not happen if we didn't need them? What the heck is going on, and why isn't anyone smart enough to "get it"??? Or is it allllll about money at the expense of everyone and our future as a country?
Be Honest.
I know, I know, you get a "piece of the pie" - however dribbling - by relabeling your products for the three well-known involved manufacturers named in the New Jersey State Commission of Investigation Report - or "breaking up" territories, or catching the dribbles out there, but again, how's that REALLY benefiting your investments, for instance - when some of you could have a great deal more of the market due to how competitive your company's products are - and perform under real warranties?
Why destroy our future and this country over another car, another pool, another trip, another electronic gadget, another "gift"???
Think about it.
Look at your part in hurting our future - and it's pretty bad.
