Poor decisions, no change in decision makers.....


My hometown of Cincinnati is in a 20-40 million dollar deficit, there was a financial crisis people get hopped up and make some bad decisions, and BANG there goes 40 mil.....no big deal
But, some decisions are just too poor to blame on a crisis. A perfect example of poor decision making can be seen in a near 4,000 square foot 20 bus stop station built beneath second street in 2003 (above). It cost 23 million dollars and it is housing for a few bums who can get past the chain lock......those of you who live here have probably seen the entrance which looks like it leads to a subway and is across from the stadiums.

Now when others make 23 million dollar mistakes at work, they get fired . Where is the new management? When things go wrong, that's ok, mistakes happen but fault needs to placed and new people need to step into the Cincinnati political machine. This was a 2003 mistake, same leadership today (rich peoples sons) that cannot get anything in Cincy rolling.

Hopefully Nick Lachey is panning a run for mayor.......40 million dollar deficits, 2 different stadiums for 2 losing teams (they can both play in one), failure to develop any riverfront property and seeing how cool Newport is, and lastly this bus station have to be reason for a change from the 9 person council system.
