another capitalist, you're right on the money.

To make matters worse, Hamilton began losing much of it's powerful, tax generating industry, yet the 'needs' and financial projects in the entire region didn't go away. We went through this period where we were funding the massive suburban growth in our region with less and less tax money coming into the old city.

People in the suburbs shudder at the state of our central, lower city, yet don't realize that much of the money that paid for their suburban expansion came from those central Hamilton wards.

Now when we want to bring some sense of fairness into an unfair tax structure, the suburbs are up in arms. Thanks a lot.
