Word of the Day: Fungible
I saw a short piece on the merger of the Minneapolis Public Library with the Hennepin County Library on our local Channel 12 news. They reported that some libraries will be expanding their hours, the funding for which comes from - the Twins Ballpark sales tax!
After getting smoked acquiring the land for the new Twins stadium, the County can hardly have any money left over. Regardless, how is it that this money isn't locked into a dedicated fund? Even if legal, how is this honest government?
