      <![CDATA["I fully understand the difficulty in having a conversation with anyone so entrenched in ANY particular ideology that they can't even think for themselves."<br>
________________________________________________________________<br>
<br>
In my 6 decades on this planet I have met many folks of all kinds of political persuasions. What I have come to realize is most folks who knowingly follow a particular ideology are much more likely to think for themselves than those who lack any ideological conviction, but just go wherever the prevailing winds are blowing.

Now, I know when you look at that map you're going to say "OMG, they included O4W, Cabbagetown, and Grant Park in downtown" but that's not the case. What CAP/ADID claims as downtown is the much smaller area inside the red line on the map.

The Ferris Wheel at Myrtle Beach is taller than the one proposed for the City of Atlanta. According to Wikipedia, there are 38 taller wheels.<br>
The London Eye is 394 feet tall, over twice the height of the midget proposed for Atlanta.

      <![CDATA[First of all Conventions bring big money to Atlanta, secondly no one is stopping anyone from building housing downtown, investors obviously cant justify it. BUT mostly our convention business has not kept up with New Orleans and Vegas because people want booze, tits, and gambling when they go to a convention, not a Ferris wheel and homeless beggars....

      <![CDATA[Why am I not surprised that a Ron Paul and Bitcoin fan like Travis would turn out to also be a corporatist and billionaire apologist who can't do even simple math?<br>
<br>
Travis (who is now on my company's reject list of people never to do business with), the amount Arthur Blank is getting is not $200,000,000, it's a percentage of the hotel tax for decades, which will end up being somewhere in the range of $500,000,000 to $900,000,000 (though one of your fellow stadium lusters claimed on here just a few days ago that it could be over $4,000,000,000 which just goes to prove how bad at math and accuracy Arthur Blank's worshipers are). You  might as well claim there is no traffic in Atlanta or that the moon and the sun are the same size.
