Paying for Lucas Oil Gladitorium

Indy Tax Dollar tells us of the CIB's heinous disregard of Indy's taxpayer serfs. The taxpayers are faced with gross budget shortfalls as a direct result of the lousy deal negotiated with Ir$ay by Bart Peterson, Fred Glass & Co. Meanwhile the top three law firms, rich from the city's bond business, are living high off the hog.

Advance Indiana also has a few words to say about the CIB and touches on the money they pass to the arts council. We believe that the CIB is funding the city's arts elites with cushy salaries, top tier restaurant jaunts, vacation time, benefits, and other personal perks.

Taxpayer activists plan a reunion tonight at 6pm for Mayor Ballard's budget presentation. Today marks the one year anniversary of the day Bart Peterson locked out the taxpayers. We are meeting to give moral support to Mayor Ballard as he has the difficult task of telling the truth and keep his promise to cut spending.

Shortly after the Mayor's budget presentation, we plan to have dinner together. All are welcome.
