The primary purpose of LANL, and the only purpose of LANL, is to provide wasteful sums of money to the local community.
“Our community has had some real challenges in communicating our interests, and just meeting and communicating with the potential bidders,” said Andrea Romero, the executive director of the Regional Coalition of LANL Communities.

The County of Los Alamos has been living well over the enormous GRT taxes that are collected on every dollar spent at LANL. That will soon come to an end. When it does, don't expect the country government to cut back on expenses. Do expect your property taxes to quickly double. Living in Los Alamos is about to get much more expensive after the approaching contract change.
Why should the county have any say? They already get jobs from the labs and the local taxes why do they need to be utter pigs and want more. If you look at all the crazy things they have built in the last 10 years it is obvious that they have way too much money. The point is that the non-profit model has failed and the NNSA has to do what is best for the nation not just what is best for a small group of greedy people in the town of Los Alamos. Again we should urge NNSA not give in or even take into consideration any points raise by the county because for them it is only about more money and kickbacks.
I thought it was to coddle and breed crazy people to feed the cowboy culture of arrogance. Is there more to the purpose?
The GRT is not going away.... You do know the lab contract award will be a political decision right?
