Is this a message board or a booster club? Do you want to talk about what is really going on, what the real potentials are, or just make stuff up with no basis? It is not negative to actually understand the real economic impact. $8 billion is still a big deal, but you need to base your tax revenue increase on the real spend here - this is why Steele was saying that it is going to generate at its best $80-100 million in taxes a year. It is a GREAT project, but if you want to plan for the future you need to know what is going on now, and not exaggerate it.
