I do believe that any investment in this city is to be looked at as positive. This includes the RHVP.

You're right that many people on this site don't believe that the RHVP was a good investment, but the main reason it has come up in this discussion is to point out the hypocrisy of suddenly getting all fiscally concerned and questioning whether the potential millions invested in this project will be worth it, when those same questions weren't asked about the hundreds of millions invested in the RHVP. We just assume that highways are always a worthwhile investment in spite of evidence to the contrary, yet get all pissy at the idea of investing in the arts - a proven economic generator.
