Wealthy Want Own Town

Wealthy people in Baton Rouge want to incorporate the area thy live in into a different township so they can funnel their money into schools for their kids and not have to fund the schools in poorer neighborhoods.  That is all very well and good for the wealthy folks but that means that kids from the poorer neighborhoods will have to struggle even harder due to a lack of resources.

I suppose what the wealthy want to do makes sense for themselves and it certainly isn't illegal;  it has been done in other areas.  The Poor neighborhoods can always protest and gripe and complain and all the protests, griping, and complaining may fall on deft ears.  But there is hope for them.  The rich are voting with their pocketbook and that vote is powerful.  well, the poor have pocketbooks too and while they don't hold as much money there are usually more poor than rich. 

If the people in the snubbed poorer neighborhoods vow not to work  in the rich people areas, then the rich would cease to be rich.  There would be restaurants but no busboys, cooks, or waitresses.  There would be grocery stores but no one to stock the shelves, unload the trucks, bake the bread, or man the cash registers.  There would be banks but no tellers, movie theaters but no ticket takers or projector operators. 

I think the rich would regret their decision.
