Corporate Welfare for Mickey Mouse
Oh joy, Disney is eyeing Pittsburgh for a film project if they can get their greedy hands on a $2 million state grant for funding the film. Lord knows they need it, Pirates of the Caribbean has only raked in $360 million thus far.
But what is $2 million in the grand scheme of things? Hell, taxpayers are paying nearly a half billion for a 1.2 mile extension to the light rail system here in Pittsburgh. (Thank you Porkmaster Santorum.) Now that is money well spent. I guarntee this project will end up costing the taxpayers close to $1 billion when all is said and done.
