I don't give one shit why he wanted the Ark it is superfluous bullshit and as bad as the NFL paying no taxes and getting free stadiums all discrimination issues aside.
This isn't like building a police station, or fire house, or public school or library. This is superfluous crap, and on top of superfluous crap, crap intended on selling bullshit myth on my dime.
Ham wants to build his own Ark, he should raise his own money in the private sector, if he cant do that, fuck him.
Just like big business, religion should not be getting welfare at the expense of everyone else.
Then this religious attraction should not be generating any revenue at all for the state. I'm sure Ham and AIG would rather just be exempt from charging sales tax. If you offered that deal to Ham, he will build the dam interchange himself.
If this religious attraction is going to be generating revenue for the state then it should be eligible for facially neutral incentives offered by the state.
