True, but so would, say, a casino, or a strip club.  Just because
money's coming into the city doesn't necessarily mean there's a net
positive here.  We need to get a little more out of the deal than 
we're getting.

I think in exchange for letting the Hack folks block off our streets 
and wake us up in the middle of the night, we should all get to use 
their giant bathroom trucks.  Those bathrooms are palatial, and they
assuredly have better water pressure than my lackluster shower.
