Led by DSA action, Charlottesville last night also voted to not give a millionaire developer tax breaks to finish building a dilapidated luxury hotel he's already committed to building. Charlottesville activism is crushing it these days.

There's this other option called "holding the developer accountable to his obligations" and also "condemning the motherfucker and tearing it down."

Hey I have an idea. Let's just keep throwing money at developers to not keep their promises. That has a real strong history of working and isn't at all what brought us here.

Maybe after we give him a million in tax breaks, we can give him two million in tax breaks. And all he has to do is continue doing the hard work of "nothing."

Costing money is *not* the issue. Giving money to millionaires to do nothing at all *is* the issue.

Why would you continue to give money to a man that has swindled the city for five years?
