I cannot wait to read the letters to the editor on Tuesdays and Fridays. I laugh at the constant bombardment of complaints about building sprawl in Sussex County. Now we all know that nothing is going to change and we all know why. However, we just can’t say it publicly in this forum. It doesn’t matter who the people elect to Sussex County Council, nothing has ever or ever will change in Sussex County. The greedy builders have more resources and political clout at their disposal. Remember the famous quote from Ozzie Myers during the ABSCAM setup years ago. Paraphrasing from Washington to Sussex County, Ozzie said money talks and bulls__t walks. You can fill in the blanks.

A letter to the editor expresses a reader's opinion and, as such, is not reflective of the editorial opinions of this newspaper.
To submit a letter to the editor for publishing, send an email to viewpoints@capegazette.com. All letters are considered at the discretion of the newsroom and published as space allows. Due to the large volume of submissions, we cannot acknowledge receipt of each submission. Letters must include a phone number and address for verification. Keep letters to 400 words or fewer. We reserve the right to edit for content or length. Letters should be responsive to issues addressed in the Cape Gazette rather than content from other publications or media. Letters should focus on local issues, not national topics or personalities. Only one letter per author will be published every 30 days regarding a particular topic. Authors may submit a second letter within that time period if it pertains to a different issue. Letters may not be critical of personalities or specific businesses. Criticism of public figures is permissible. Endorsement letters for political candidates are no longer accepted. Letters must be the author’s original work, and may not be generated by artificial intelligence tools. Templates, form letters and letters containing language similar to other submissions will not be published.
