"Vision2 is nothing more than a bailout/ bribery fund for American Airlines (prop 1) wrapped in the guise of community improvement (prop 2). The airport does needs repairs, but who is responsible for those repairs? According to the lease signed by IC Bus, American Airlines, Spirit, and others... they are, and not the taxpayers of Tulsa County as Dewey Bartlett would have you believe. If Tulsa County and Mayor Bartlett cannot be trusted to hold to the contracts or to hold these private corporations accountable to the leases they have signed, how are we to believe they will hold to promises of grand projects that are not tied by contractual obligation to monies in prop 2? Every project that anyone has advocated for or that you have heard of in the news is nothing more than an idea. The money in prop 2 is not tied to ANY project and would not be tied to any project until AFTER the vote and then only when decided upon by a panel of 7 in secret meetings not open to public record. If that doesn't send up a red flag I don't know what will. This may be a Vision, but a vision for whom? These proposals do not have Tulsa or Tulsa County citizen’s best interests in mind. I wouldn't mind seeing some of the projects suggested getting done, but to hand a blank check over to Tulsa County with very little to no oversight is not the way to do it. If you are a conservative you cannot support these proposals as they encourage and condone crony capitalism, corporatism, and the government picking winners and losers. If you are a democrat you cannot support these proposals simply because they encourage and condone taking from the 99% to give to the 1%. Vision2 is too rushed, too much, too sloppy, and too soon. Vote NO on Vision2, Prop 1 & 2. www.facebook.com/StopVision2"
