NEBRASKA IS A STATE WHICH IS HAVING ECONOMIC PROBLEMS IN THE WESTERN AND CENTRAL HALF OF THE STATE AND WHILE THERE ARE MANY WORTHWHILE REASONS TO LIVE IN WESTERN NEBRASKA, INCLUDING THE NATIONAL FORESTS, NIOBRARIA RIVER AND MANY OTHER ATTRACTIONS THE POPULATION IS STEADILY DECLINING. THIS LEADS TO SOME DEEP CONTROVERSIAL DISCUSSION AMONG THE SENATORS OF EASTERN NEBRASKA. ONE OF THE DISCUSSIONS IS WHETHER WE SHOULD COMBINE COUNTIES AND CHANGE BORDERS, ELIMINATE SOME OF THE COUNTIES SEATS AND AND ANOTHER CONTROVERSIAL DISCUSSION IS WHETHER CLASS I RURAL SCHOOLS SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN. BOTH OF THESE SITUATIONS WOULD CAUSE GREAT HARDSHIPS FOR THE PEOPLE OF WESTERN AND CENTRAL NEBRASKA AND EVEN IN SOME PARTS OF NORTHEASTERN NEBRASKA; HOWEVER THIS IS WHAT MAY HAPPEN. PEOPLE SIMPLY CAN NOT AFFORD TO STAY BECAUSE THERE IS A LACK OF EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES AND IT IS A SPIRALING CYCLE. THE MORE PEOPLE MOVE OUT THE HIGHER EXPENSES ARE, THE LESS SERVICES ARE OFFERED AND THE FURTHER YOU HAVE TO TRAVEL FOR THOSE SERVICES. THE HIGHWAYS ARE NOT LIKELY TO BE REPAIRED BECAUSE THEY ARE GIVEN LOW PRIORITY. THERE IS ALSO A WATER CRISIS GOING ON IN WESTERN NEBRASKA AND NEBRASKA TENDS GET BLAMED FOR EVERY PROBLEM THERE IS. SO WHY DO PEOPLE WANT TO STAY IN WESTERN NEBRASKA WITH ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS? BECAUSE IN MY OPINION NEBRASKA IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACE ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH. NOT LIKE THE GRAND CANYON PERHAPS BUT WITH A BEAUTY ALL HER OWN, YOU HAVE TO STAND ON A HILL, LOOK DOWN INTO THE VALLEY, FEEL THE WIND BLOWING THROUGH YOUR HAIR AND FEEL IT IN YOUR HEART. NEBRASKA HAS A WILD, FREE FEELING TO IT, AND HIDDEN SURPRISES THAT DELIGHT A PERSON, BUT YOU HAVE TO SEARCH. NEBRASKA GROWS RIGHT INTO YOU AND THE ONLY PLACE I LIKE BETTER THAN NEBRASKA IS NORTH DAKOTA. HOLD ONTO YOUR MAPS BECAUSE IT MIGHT NOT BE TO FAR INTO THE FUTURE THAT BORDERS WILL CHANGE AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE THEY HAVE PLANNED, YOU JUST HAVE TO STAY TUNED.
