Kansas City will now give all its cash to aging Crossroads Hipsters

So, thankfully a user-specific tax abatement program for artists in the Crossroads Arts District (might) mean that you don't have to pay taxes if you can hold a paintbrush, you're white and you have the right address.

Also, they're opening up a new bank in the ubercool district to take advantage of all the tax savings!!!

Nice.

I'm sure all these economic incentives are going to really help out this City or at least the people who cater to causal drug users who call themselves artists and/or folks who are in the business of selling hummus and moderate to expensive wine.

(Note: Does anybody know the name of that hosh-posh liquor store in the Crossroads? It actually seemed rather nice and if they carry Colt .45 then I'm in luck. There is nothing better than tax abated malt liquor. I wouldn't even mind giving my money to hipsters as long as my spare change is going to ensure white privilege and destroy my liver . . . Talk about Double bonus!!!)
