I'm sorry, I'm not following. Most taxes are almost literally taxes on the next generation, why is this special?

In most cases it makes a lot of sense for the City to put up the initial down-payment and suck up the ticket tax financing because they get vastly better rates than a company and that reduces financing costs.

But then again, they need to be compensated for that.
