I don't disagree with you assessment , but consider the Auburn economy. Auburn has the university which continues to feed the community with educated folks thru graduates and faculty. It has a secondary school system the is one of the top systems in the South, it's a place people want to live and work. I agree that for decades the mill village mentality by mill owners has discouraged any well paying company from moving to the area so wages would not go up for their mill. As a result we now have an area stuck in the 50's. To climb out will take generations, if it ever happens. Look at the Black Belt, same situation. We have the lake and we have weekenders and retirees. Which of those two groups can provide the best economic boost to the area?
