MONet: Kansas City business leaders hopeful about end to “border war” between Missouri and Kansas

The Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce president is praising Missouri Governor Mike Parson (R) for signing legislation into law that’s aimed at ending the economic “border war” between Missouri and Kansas.

Joe Reardon hopes it will lead to additional regional cooperation.
Will it work???
You decide . . .
No. It won't work. There is no border wars with Iowa, Illinois, Arkansas, oklahoma, kentucky, nebraska? Kansas isnt the only state bordering Missouri. So, I dont get it. All of these states woukd have to be dealt with, I would think.
ReplyDeleteNot going to happen. This city is to far gone (mental) politically.
ReplyDeleteIf there's a "Border War", why has Missouri been building all these facilities for Johnson Countians all these decades?

ReplyDeleteKansas City and St Louis are ruining the state of Missouri.
and yet they are not. Weird.
ReplyDeleteToo many lawyers, developers and politicians benefit from corporate welfare. While publicly the Chamber may advocate for an end to it I would guess many of its members support the continuation. And I would guess privately the Chamber is probably working for a continuation of the incentives.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the city, the so called leadership, should look at KCMO being ranked #45 recently as a place young people desire to locate to. Ask the question why? Then look in the mirror.
ReplyDelete^^Are you retarded are just old. Both?
