Wow. Public Investment Sparks Major Private Investment in Tulsa

I think Dewey is ambivalent on this. The city is trying to do another 2025.

But yeah, there were several posters on here or the old board that I went Jihad with over this about 11 years ago. One side was right and they are typing this message.
 
Also, Bates is totally irrelevant these days. He only shows up on random Facebook threads with young republican types that you and I know. He still acts like the illuminati was out to get him. Whatever, it's like Accountability Burns or Paul Tay. Just ignore them.

The current scary wingnuts are all in state office these days. Fallin, Pruitt, most of the legislature.
 
They need to do this and make smart investments. Private businesses are not going to make huge commitments of the BOK type. It just doesn't happen. Vision 2025 was great for Tulsa. Keep it up T-town.

Pruitt unfortunately is a Tulsa grad. He brings shame upon us.

The city of Tulsa budget is actually less than the budgets of OU and OSU. The city serves roughly 400,000 people while OU and/or OSU serve roughly one sixteenth that number. So if you go to OU/OSU you are basically attending a rich man's school in a poor man's state.

Maybe we need to do like OKC does and just get the state to subsidize anything we want. But 2025 was still a good idea and has been good for the region IMO.

So when our next Governor - Scott Pruitt enters office, maybe we can do something about the overfunding of public universities and the underfunding of the city of Tulsa. ;)

I don't think anyone in their right mind believes the universities of our state are "overfunded" that is a right wing fallacy to make us dumber.
