Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.
I read this contract several years ago as part of another matter that I was working on. It struck me as laughably bad back then. The only thing the city got was a big payment upfront. It smacked of a payday loan situation.
What took him so long. I am sure the government can do it better than any private business. It will only require 4,000 patronage hires, 1,000 middle level management patronage hires and 100 top level executives making $150K or more each to run it. Hmmm, might even need a separate Board of Directors to make sure the graft and corruption takes hold. It will work out just like most government prOgrams do. Go for it Pinhead.
