Our Corporate Government

    It appears corporations are controlling our American government. Corruption becomes more apparent while living inside housing complexes like Rockland Place Apts. or Spring Gate, where corporate landlords go unpunished for repeatedly violating vulnerable citizens.
     State and Federal laws are meant to protect Americans.... But do they?  Corporations are manipulating courts and government agencies whether we like it or not.  Even when corporations are known for deceptive business practices and commit acts of fraud, our government continues doing business with them while using tax dollars from its citizens.
     As a resident of Rockland Place and Spring Gate Apts., you may be denied a trial at Brockton Housing Court.  More corporations are gaining control of our legal system through coerced mediation proceedings.  For very good reasons, this should never be allowed in the USA.  Companies and partnerships really do appear to have more rights and more power than individuals do in 2012.   Should our government be hiring outside contractors to do the work of public servants?  Please take time to explore the links listed below.

     The third link ties one of the limited partners of Rockland Place to various corporations and political campaign contributions.  However, Rockland Place dba Spring Gate has numerous investors, shareholders, and partners.  Though they say otherwise, this housing community is known for supporting various illegal activities.

No Right To Know

For Massachusetts citizens with no extra spending money, you may have no right to know updated laws and regulations!  The Code of Massachusetts Regulations is not available for free on the Internet. Massachusetts is the only state in the United States that charges for online access to its own state administrative code. Though a number of Massachusetts state agencies post their regulations on their agency’s website, they make no guarantee that they are official or up to date.

So What's the Big Secret?

All too often, while corporations are under government contracts or receiving government funds, they're quietly allowed to violate vulnerable consumers and laws. Certain CEOs and corporations are secretly influencing American politics with large amounts of money. Tell the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to Expose the Hidden Influence of Corporate Money! ...  Click here.

Carvings, Dings, and Other Things

      If you're parking a vehicle overnight in the lots along Hannah Way and Martha Drive in Rockland, Mass., please be aware vehicles get vandalized on this mismanaged, subsidized property.  Lug nuts get loosened. Tires get slashed; hoods, trunks, and doors get dented and gouged. Who are the vandals? .... Perhaps slanderous strays who come out after day to spell, scratch, and carve foul phrases on cars?  Over the years, I've read some gruesome graffiti gouged into tenants personal property.  Last year, the property manager of Rockland Place simply advised residents to always check each one of their nuts before driving away.
     Early Friday evening, February 3, 2012, a noisy crowd gathered at 34 Martha Drive to witness another 'disturbance'. Some people grew distraught at the thought of this chaotic incident possibly turning into another blood bath like the violent slashing inside building 63 Martha Drive last year.  Officials from the Plymouth County Sheriff's Dept. and BCI (Bureau of Criminal Investigation) snapped photos and investigated.
     Promised on-site security cameras in common areas might help Management and local Police better define and resolve some of the ongoing safety issues at this troublesome housing complex.  In the meantime, Rockland Place dba SpringGate Apts. remains a liability, instead of an asset, to civilized citizens in the Town of Rockland.
