IRONDEQUOIT, N.Y. A proposal to spend $250 million of taxpayer money on a retail project here illustrates the damage state and local subsidies do by taking from the many to benefit the already rich few.

When the Monroe County industrial development agency gave (developer])Congels plan initial approval I asked for its due diligence. The county provided a thin report stating that if taxpayers finance the restoration Medley Centres sales would grow from $30 million annually to $420 million.
The report cover states that Congel commissioned it. Judy Seil, director of the agency which gives money to companies, confirmed that Congel paid for the report. Still, she insisted, the report is the countys due diligence.
Thats how corporate socialism works. The poor may have to pass a drug test to get benefits but rich applicants write their own ticket.
