This is a drive along a 20-mile stretch of KY 30 in Jackson and Owsley counties in southeastern KY. This is one of the most economically depressed areas of the state, and this road is a large reason why. It's the area's major access route to I-75, yet it's narrow, hilly, crooked and has no shoulders. The Democrat idiots in charge of Kentucky state government in 2008 eliminated reconstruction of this road, long a priority among leaders of both parties, from the state's road construction plans. The soundtrack is an apt description of what this road puts the whole region's economy in -- a stranglehold.
