It's only natural to defend one's hometown; I defend mine, even though it has significant problems.

As far as Columbus, though, I lived and worked there for 20 years before relocating 4 years ago. For a number of reasons, I would not move back. I could live in Tupelo, though; it suited me much better.

Jackson’s main “industries” are government and finance - not the sort that employee a lot of people.

Don't let facts get in the way of a good bash fest!

Jackson is actually a very good employer. That's why most people live there, is due to pretty good jobs.

It's a challenge for people to bash fest with facts & not opinions.
