Stop Indiana,

Your post is 100% correct. All we hear from government is that "It is only an extra $25. It is only an extra 1%." We are being taxed to death in small increments. The government has now gone so far to just magically increase the money supply with Wall St./Bank bailouts 1 and 2.

The future doesn't look bright at all. I foresee a one world currency on the horizon, as that will be the only way to have some stability. This will only cause friction between nations because some nations will still want to make money out of thin air and build things on debt. However, if we don't have some sort of world currency, the US dollar is going to collapse and FRN are going to b worthless. I seriously recommend buying silver coins on a regular basis. Eventually I think the people of the world will laugh at the idea of "money" as we know it now, and actual physical goods are what will be used to buy things.

This Wishard deal is no different than the Stadium deal, the IPS bond issues, etc.. It is always a little here, a little there. What happens is what we saw with the property tax fiasco a few years ago. All the state did was delay the inevitable. All units of government, including privately held taxpayer subsidized companies like IDI and the Colts, can't stop the greed. Schools are finally laying off teachers, but even some are suing because of greed. These entities _always_ want more. They can't understand the concept of frugality.

The crash is coming, and I hope the rich elite have their passports in order, because once the crash comes, this country will turn into a third world cesspool overnight. Now some will say that we will be just like China or India, with vast slums where the majority of the population lives. That is true, but the rich elites won't be able to be safe here. There are enough guns in this country for every single person to have one. Look at what our vets are doing under stress combined with alcohol consumption: Three young vets have had issues in the last two weeks. All involving war, drinking, stress, and guns.

"Every responsible community organization, board and entity is supporting the Wishard referendum."

All of the groups rely on taxpayer dollars for funding. That should tell you something.

Every responsible community organization, board and entity is supporting the Wishard referendum. Some of these are groups that never agree on anything. There must be some compelling reasons for the wide wide support.

I'm out of words and very discouraged. Thanks for the coverage, Gary. I wish our money was as vast as our imagination.

Can't you take just a little pity on IDI? If they do not show their worth to the 'powers that be', they are on the chopping block for future taxpayer gravy. Yes, my friends, the gravy train just might be losing steam for our high-salary friends at IDI!

They showed up to the MDC to advocate for Tadd Miller... they showed up to the Council to advocate for the CIB and the ICVA... now they advocate for Matt Gutwein and H&H... and they hope that these folks return the favor and advocate for the awesome job they do - squandering taxpayer money replicating the effort of other organizations downtown. Its all about the gravy train.

Please, show just a little compassion for IDI here.

The council needs to pull the plug on subsidizing Indianapolis Downtown. The organization getting involved in the Wishar Referendum is yet another reason why. They are simply a taxpayer funded shill for whatever the administration wants.

IDI is an organization which puts its officers and top employees first, paying themselves lavish salaries and benefits using taxpayer money. IDI literally has millions stashed away in investments, money which originated as taxes paid by you and me.

Neal Boortz is perfectly making the point on air this evening. Force fed, hyper-taxation is DEVALUING AMERICAN LIFE, tax increase upon tax increase, percent upon percent.

The lives of citizens are literally being consumed by the morbid largesse of a no longer credible government; having abandoned legitimate or familiar form. Sustainable?
