	Honolulu Star-Bulletin Editorial - Commentary
		When the Ewa Plains was designated the Second City, the City and County of Honolulu envisioned huge windfall profits from the booming housing construction along the Fort Weaver Road corridor in Ewa.
		Unable to control growth and development in the Ewa area, or even attempt to mitigate the mounting impacts, it became clear that the city had yielded most of its inherent governing powers to the developers, landowners and politicians.
		When the city was left dying, sapped of political power, the developers morphed into a beast, with the landowner and politicians embedded in its belly, and moved in for the kill, strangling the city of its last breath and leaving it powerless in the region.
