We had heard some of these views here in the rebellious colonies. We were amused to find that as part of the best ways to get the economy going was to spend money on police, cleaning crews and other services. One does see a dichotomy in the spending on one event instead of long term solutions that would reach many more and serve the peoples interests rather than the interests of a few who's Mum might have paid for this out of her own coffers just as easily. Mind you, it's about what Meg Whitman spent for her failed bid for the California governorship. Then again, we have these kinds of parties every 4 years after the presidential elections, usually with shorter trains on the dresses mind.
