This is fucking insane. Harsh words but our libraries are closing and 66 million tax dollars are being given to Bass Pro to open downtown.
Believe it or not, 14 million is miraculously coming from the city and county funds, I thought we were bankrupt. They say 400 jobs will be created but according to news channel 2

, it will amount to $165,000 of county and city tax dollars per job. The workers can't possibly make so much.
Now I have to ask myself where the fuck the money is coming from if we can't afford the library. I wish they would just haul the books out onto elmwood and burn them so we could at least see this huge symbol of end of our society in a most visually dramatic way. One time when wondering through Weimar I wondered what it felt like when people realized the Weimar Republic was ending.
I can't wait till Bass Pro trickles down onto my economy.
