I have been wondering where they are planning to build? I saw a report over the weekend that said 'west of the IUPUI campus' but there sure isn't much room around there if you look at the google map. Maybe it's going to be skinny and really, really tall? But they still normally have mechanical shops, laundry and steam facilities as outbuildings from what I've seen of other more modern hospitals. Where they gonna put all that?

Gutwein has confirmed to me that he is extremely machiavellian in his ways just like so many of his generation. Bill Clinton represented the worst of this from that 60s generation. The young people lost their way and began believing in a sense of entitlement in place of the traditional American dream. They honestly believe it is okay to lie if it is done to achieve what you believe is best for yourself. That's how we get our president telling us "I never had sex with that woman" only to later say in the face of his patent lie that it all depends on the meaning of what "is" is.

And in a great bit of subliminal messaging, WISHTV repeated a news story all weekend with

(a) phone interview with TV screen just showing 'voice of', and Scott Schneider giving his reasons for urging a NO vote.

and then

(b) closeup of Gutwein on-camera making his standard pitch, ending with a cheshire-like grin as the story fades to black.

Now maybe they just couldn't get Schneider on-camera in a timely manner, but the slant was there intentional or not.

Absolutely right. There is no watchdog for the public interest, and the fatcats are grabbing everything they can get, while the getting is still good.

Spook,

I certainly don't agree with that. Corruption of a city's politics is not directly related to the city's size. There are plenty of corrupt towns and small cities where there are one or two elites running the show. Then there are big cities that have more honest government.

The key is whether thee is a watchdog. Indianapolis has no watchdog. These people have no fear of getting caught, or if they get caught, no fear of of prosecution. When was the last time Brizzi prosecuted a public corruption case?

Our problem is not with welfare for the poor. Our problem is with welfare for the rich.

The larger the municipality, the more corruption there is. The size of large cities means more and more elites that want their personal bank accounts padded at the expense of taxpayers.

All one has to do is read this blog and that should tell them one thing: Don't live in a heavily populated county, especially one that has a large % of people living on welfare of some sort, and expect a honest government. It won't happened in Indy, it has never happened in all of human history.

Get out while you can.
