Right. Stupid move.

I'm familiar with basic economics, but have you been noticing the spiraling costs of skilled labour? I havent.
What about the costs of materials, especially materials that have to be shipped in from the US and getting raked over the coals on the exchange as well as the increased cost of shipping?
All that and asking a cash-strapped City for cash.
I'm not seeing any especially skilled economic maneuvers here.
