> tarred in the press as an example of wasteful spending

umm... they WERE wasteful spending, in that they went bankrupt. You can drive past that building on the 880 freeway.

Right, but you only ever hear about the stories of waste, not the stories of success, because talking about the success of government business loans is one of the driest and most dull topics out there. Press doesn’t like to cover it because it’s so boring. I mean, a marginal percentage of people participate in local government meetings because of this reason. It’s so boring to listen to meetings about housing and infrastructure policy, even though they’re vital to the community.

If you want to read about government success stories, you have to seek them out.

So you've changed your topic now. First you said they were "tarred" as if that was false.
