I dare all of you to copy and paste   (John Perkins zeitgeist) in youtube he is a confessed economic hitman you need to watch it to understand it is short but this is also what is going on locally. they want the city in debt so much debt it can not pay it back then they will have to refinance which means selling off public works to private corporations look at emx millions paid to take over streets the tax payers paid for years then only emx can make profits this is all part of the scam. but it probably comes from manipulating the books to make it look like they have the money.  in places that can not re pay like flint Michigan they will bring in non elected officials and turn the city into dictatorship. please if you read this you still do not understand till you see the video.
