City's G-8/NATO costs could hit $65M, say officials in first such appraisal

City's G-8/NATO costs could hit $65M, say officials in first such appraisal


Some things are just beyond comprehension.

Why does a city claiming budget problems find money to put upfront, just to host a select few that should pay? Yeah. Like you, this just doesn't make any sense whatsoever. I get the fact hotels will get a little business, maybe even hookers because diplomatic immunity is a perk. But, just wrapping your head around the logic of having to foot a bill upfront for "Wealthy Countries", is a bit insane.

The ultimate kicker is the fact our own government will "Reimburse" the city for such a bill is also insane. All they will do is sit around, order food, find some hookers, and dope, and pronounce to the world, nothing of significance came about from this meeting except, a trade agreement that may fuck over more American workers.

Yep, some things are just beyond comprehension.
