KC Museum Tax - An Irish Angle?
Speaking of KC’s Pitch Weekly, Chris Pakham in the Plog - the Pitch’s blog, geddit? - finds an Irish angle in the possibility of Kansas City voters facing a ballot to support a property tax increase for museums in the city.
It’s like a trick, forcibly extracting admission from Kansas City residents who may not want to visit the Irish Museum and Cultural Center at Union Station. (You soooooo do not want to visit the Irish Museum and Cultural Center in Union Station.)
Read it all in the Plog, though in the original article in the Star I should point out that I don’t see the IMCC in the list of Museums, but that doesn’t take away from Chris’ point.
UPDATE: Michael Mahoney reports that this proposal is dead - in the 1st line, but by the last time we’re told only probably so.
Man, I really like this Pakham fella - even though I’m not ordinarily a fan of the Bitch Weakly. Pakham shows incredibly good judgment and, for the record, I have never met the man.
Maybe I’m not the only one who can see what a sham the IMCC really is.
