RCS appears to have little impact on the local economy, but it single-handedly raises the crime rate of the sleeply little town of Dahlonega, GA.
It was interesting to read some of the history.
At one point HLA was the second largest private employer in Lumpkin County, with 138 faculty and staff, 90 of whom lived in the county. Additionally, 12 local people were employed by the food service contractor used by the school.
...
Pretty much. You got a car didn't ya? Does it matter that it's not what you ordered?
I'm not sure what HLA intended with their comment about being the fourth largest employer in Lumpkin Co. Should that somehow weigh on the judge's decision? I can't even find them in the Top 10.

HLA/RCS and its damage control mouthpieces are not being honest when they tell people about RCS's impact on the local economy. They don't even make the "top five" list, despite the lies their mouthpieces here try to perpetrate. Funny how the veneer crumbles with anything more than a cursory glance, no?
RCS has spun a web ofl ies easily refuted by the public record. Do your homework, people. RCS will say anything, even blatant untruths, to keep its faltering business afloat.
