In Dover, a call for Hispanic activism
From: NewsTrove.com
""We came from other countries searching for a better life," Marin said; "the least we can do is to abide by the law."
Overcrowding, he said, is not only a fire and health hazard, but also creates a financial burden on town residents as the number of unreported children increases.
In Dover, he said, it costs about $9,000 a year to educate one child while the local tax share of a home assessed at the town's average is less than $5,000.
"If there are more children living in one house, taxes will go up and the quality of education could diminish," Marin said."

Business Reform Magazine and Business News - Real Faith, Real Business, Real Success
From: NewsTrove.com
"Every time an economic base change occurs, the distribution of wealth changes. When massive agricultural or industrial or manufacturing or technological progress occurs, our economic base changes. As a result, wealth has been redistributed many times throughout the history of the world.
In 1960, the U.S. economy began to shift. What the industrializing North of the 1800s once did to the agricultural South, was done by the technological West to the industrialized East in the late 1900s. It took awhile to regain lost ground."
