Are you saying if the local, county, state politicians were against these subsidies the people would still vote for them, I don’t think so.

Politicians have much sway over the voters in these ripoffs.

I’m saying that voters have free will and no one holds a gun to their head in the voting booth.

Spot on! And as always, the “business community” is all lined up with the pols to “two-step” these financial disasters past the gullible voters. This also explains how the downtown streets get repaved, but somehow not the neighborhoods.
