Isnt it strange that in the free enterprise society that we live in there is only one project for 15 million that is being done by free entrprise and the rest are all projects built with tax dollars.

Could it be that we have run out of tax dollars why our economy is in the dumper? Maybe its time that all those free enterprisers put their money were there mouth is and started to spend some of the profits they have been reaping from our natural resources. Greed has no bounds.

The project inventory is a joke and has been a joke for decades. It is not an indicator of anything other than clerks at work doing little. There is no reliability there to based anything on.

example - Ethanol plant - 2002 - $20 million. Who do they phone to get updates on that one including price updates? itr is actaully listed as updated in June and they were given a start date of late 2008 with a finish of 2009. (They must be relatives of that so-called developer from San Francisco)

Railway Museum expansion??? That was a very short lived proposal. It died, I thought. When they call the museum for an update, are they talking to the janitor?

Friendship lodge would not be listed because the project is too small. The inventory is actually called MAJOR project inventory and lists nothing under $15 million.

The Cameron Street Bridge is actually listed at $35 million, otherwise it would not even be there.

Pinnacle Pellet next to Dunkley is listed as $30 million with an update of June 2008 and unknown strat and finish. That place is now built and steaming away churning out pellets.

I hope no one gets paid for producing this work of fiction.
