Star Rating - 1/29/2006
this town used to be seemingly perfect and now its totally blue collar trashed. When i went back to keokuk i was shocked at how misstreated it became.

Greed...The high wages that the Union factory workers demand drove out most of the factories and therefore any of the good hard working people, that built the town have now either died off or moved away. This is meant as a general statement and by no means implies that there isn't any good hard working people there, they are just "hoping it would get better"

Blue collar trash huh? Wrong.. hard working people just trying to get by. The town has gone down hill because there is no large tax base to pay for repairs anymore! You will find this all over small town America.!
