Corporations in KC are entitled to public taxpayer funding of costs while keeping profits private. And the slick KC Economic Development Corporation will enter into phony leases that will allow all construction materials and equipment, furniture, fixtures to be bought sales tax free. This is all accomplished with the blessings of the Mayor and City Council.
