The problem is that Atlanta is run as a minority jobs program with abysmal return on investment. I used to work for a company that had a large contract with the city for engineering services (because they can’t do anything complicated themselves). It was eye opening shall we say.
The good news in this is that we may gain the impetus to wrest the airport away from city management (and cronyism; ie “disadvantaged” contracts given to firms run by black millionares) and place it under state control where it belongs.
Google the contract fiasco on the fill dirt for the new runway if you really want to be disgusted.
Liberals were squealing like stuck pigs about it, but I never heard the outcome. Did that ever happen?
Look into how any city in the country is being run where the "leadership" is primarily DemocRats and you'll see a similar picture. There is nothing unique about the DemocRat control in Atlanta....
