Ärende: Tax breaks
==================
Replying to a message of John Massey to Bob Ackley:

I don't live in that filthy, crime-ridden burg.  I don't even visit the place
much
any more.  I just observe and comment on the machinations of its government.

Actually, I think it'd be a hoot if they did get all that property bought up
and
the voters turned down the bond issue (not that that's a real possibility given
who counts the votes), leaving them stuck with the property and any mortgage
payments involved.  Since the area is a "low-rent" district where the city
utilities (water, sewer) are really shot, hopefully they'll lose their
collective shirts.

One difference between us is that you think that there's some possibility
of honesty in government.  I don't, I consider *all* politicians and most
bureaucrooks to be as-yet unconvicted criminals.  And I no longer have any
faith in the legal system.

 BA>> - thirty

 JM> Same answer. That is illegal and there is a legal remedy. At the very

I heard about it from a college instructor, who happened to be on the committee
that investigated and recommended the purchase of that hospital by a national
chain (AMI) in about 1983.  The finagling took place in the mid-1970s, so after
the purchase those board members would be out of (those) jobs unless the
acquiring
organization took them on in some capacity - and given the knowledge of their
finagling I doubt that would be the case.
