I spoke on the phone with Councillor Lutz today. He assured me he would NOT be supporting any financial assistance to IUPUI from the city. However, with the CIB due to make a balloon payment to the state in 2015, I'm afraid the writing is already on the wall with how that money is going to be used. The Mayor will claim it's not "new money" being used and that the State can use the CIB payment how they see fit. It's a tangled web they weave, isn't it?

Greg or his minions apparently are the dummest assholes ever elected or are just crooks with taxpayer money. Nuff said!

This is another Financial defalcation. When is someone gonna do jail time?

Former Republican.

Sports, sports and more sports! This constant reason to try to build up Indy's image. The tables are slowly turning Gary. I went to see Shrek at Franklin Central that was put on by the student drama club. They had three performances that were all close to being sold out. The band will have a concert this winter that will also be sold out. These six performances will draw more people then the varsity boys basketball team will draw for their entire season. Once upon a time boys high school basketball Indiana's only and biggest sport You have Dancing With the Stars, Glee and all of the singing and dancing shows. Eventually we will jump on that band wagon and put money into the arts. Yes Carmel put a exorbitant amount into the Palladium. But people are coming and staying in the hotels and shopping and eating in Carmel and seeing a show. Why because Carmel has high end restaurants and shopping. So upper scale show draw upper scale patrons. Gary I will pick the arts any day over a football or basketball game. It stimulates the mind!

Just more proof that Indianapolis is not a democracy, just a rigged plutocracy. Hate to say it, but part of the problem is that we under pay these losers who have more to gain by making the wealthy happy than by being honorable civil servants. They don't even have to try that hard to fleece us. City County building needs to be fumigated, starting with the 25th floor. (I mean that metaphorically, not literally, as I wish no actual physical harm to those jerks)

This is more of a gift from Ryan V to his buddy Fred G. The whole thing smells.

What will it take to get a federal investigation into this old-boy network?

So, just this week, the Mayor decides we should privatize and/or sell off the city parks AND "chip in" $9.5 for the IU Natatorium.

Anyone see the irony in this?

I know what his agenda is. After he leaves the May...

I know what his agenda is. After he leaves the Mayor's Office, there will be a soft spot for him at IUPUI.

This city is doing everything it can to pump all taxpayer resources into downtown, and it is telling the rest of the city to go to hell.

We'd be better served by starting a new city and letting Indianapolis be only about three square miles in and around downtown.

The decision has already been made. People who hav...

The decision has already been made. People who have followed in the past the outline of our Crony-Capitalists, the Republicrat Party in Marion County, and the various other Groups allied with the Sports Parasite Establishment know this.

The Star will pull out their usual rough draft for these types of projects and fill in the blanks with names, and Organizations. The Star will make it appear these talks are a serious discussion among Elected Leadership. They will give the impression that all those that count are on board the ship of Corporate Welfare.

Next some Rent a Report Sports Company will produce a glowing conclusion that in order to preserve and or expand our economy we need the Natatorium to be upgraded.

Several guest columnists will write articles favoring that the City "Chip In."

The Star will conclude with an editorial favoring the notion that the City Chip In to preserve our "World Class Image."

Build a new Public Park Swimming Pool or maybe a couple for the people - Not Likely- More to the Point- Not Even. The only Sports and recreation facilities that receive big money are for Billionaire Owners of Professional Sports Teams or Cricket or Soccer Stadiums.

GREG "HUSSEIN" BALLARD, MAYOR MARINE OF "DETROIT SOUTH" CONTINUALLY SAYS INDIANAPOLIS IS FLAT BROKE & CAN'T AFFORD TO PROVIDE BASIC CITY SERVICES, LIKE POLICE PROTECTION.
YET MAYOR MARINE WANTS TO GIVE A **STATE** ENTITY $9.5 MILLION TAX DOLLARS TO REMODEL A STATE-OWNED, STATE-OPERATED BUILDING THAT SITS ON STATE PROPERTY.
ANYBODY WONDER JUST WHAT MAYOR MARINE'S AGENDA IS?
