A good list but will it appeal to the FIFA loving masses enough to become an election issue?

Probably it should be reordered to put the money stuff first and the agri-enviro stuff last. Some of the writing is a little crybabyish and should be made tougher/ more financially - security oriented. For instance #4 should de-emphasize our responsibility, true though it is, and emphasize that a hollowed out city breeds crime which costs taxpayers.

they should add to the list a consideration of risk (ie beef up #6). If we build it, will they actually come, especially once peak oil drives up aviation costs? Show how taxpayers take the risk but pay speculators for the opportunity. What if increased taxes doesn't cover initial costs? Where does the money come from anyway? Are we going to be fleeced like this place

Let's help this group by adding other ideas and making their initiative bulletproof.

Frogs, the pot is getting warm.
