Tampa Plutocrats Grandiose Deception

Transit Petition Winners: Vinik, Sternberg, Local Fishwrap; Losers: Everyone Else

The proposed $15 billion Hillsborough County transit initiative is primarily designed to rescue two failing private-sector entities and bring to fruition a taxpayer subsidized ballpark for 
the Tampa Bay Rays.

The fact that those bankrolling the petition effort are hiding behind a “non-profit,” tells voters all they need to know.  The front man for the effort refused to tell us who hides 
in the shadows.
