That Giant Sucking Sound

Coming from your wallet is the Global TransPark.

Profiled yesterday nicely in the N&O.

So many great lines in the piece like:

“a government project long criticized for receiving lots of taxpayers’ money but having little to show for it”

or “it was supposed to attract Spirit suppliers and other aerospace companies to the TransPark” (emphasis mine)

or “The TransPark has 13 tenants, including three government agencies, which is the same number it had when Spirit signed on two years ago.”

or “The TransPark has received nearly $250 million in state, federal and local money since 1991.”

or “Of the $38 million the TransPark owes the state, $16.4 million is accrued interest.”

So, can anyone tell me why we can’t pull the plug on this epic failure yet?
