Paul,
WOW, great review!!! I do not recall a film, book, or theater review engaging me or being quite so fair and thorough as this.
A truly excellent review!

He has created a business, it is not charity. And besides, this arena and team will bring tremendous ammounts of money, jobs and tax revenue to our city. It is a godsend, and we need this right now.
As Goldy rightfully pointed out, this arena deal is the only deal of its kind to take place in this country in decades. The arena is paying paid for with private funds, that has not happened in my entire lifetime, anywhere in this country. IT is a phenomenally good deal for the city.
What is wrong with all the idiots today, do your fucking homework and like I said earlier, take a fucking economics class and learn how a local economy works! This deal will net the city tons of money over the next decade, while costing it virtually nothing.
And BTW, I don't give a flying fuck about basketball.

The money offered here is private money, not public money. It is not relevant to bring in education etc. into this debate. But, since you bring it up, this does bring a massive amount of new jobs in construction, stadium employment, restaurants, merchandise, design, professional athletes. Not to mention the incredible amount of new tax revenue brought into the city from people residing elsewhere, that would otherwise be spent elsewhere, will be spent in Seattle, benefiting our local economy, and therefore, every other item you mention needing funding.
Take a fucking economics class, for christ sakes, it is not that difficult.
My guess is that Hanson previously anticipated this and built in the additional monies needed to up his offer, multiple times, if necessary. It is what I would have done.

scratchmaster joe commented on Ed Murray has Three Days to Fundraise for Mayor.
McGinn has my vote. The other candidates criticism is unfounded, it reminds me of the GOP field's criticism of President Obama in 2012.
McGinn is the only hard hitting mayor we've had in this town, he's not afraid of a straight up fight, and that, in this hometown of mine, is pretty fucking rare.

Right on, that's a hell of a strongly worded decision.

scratchmaster joe commented on Mormons Drop Active Opposition to Same-Sex Marriage.
That is a pretty impressive turn about. I commend them for finding their way to 2013...
Sure, they could go farther, and this doesn't repair the hateful damage they have already caused, but it is nonetheless, impressive.

I guess they're ruling through submission. It's all been a trick, maybe my dogs never loved me as a boy, they just used me to further their own agenda of world domination?

I LOVED YOU AND YOU USED ME!!!!!!!!!!!
