As a taxpayer, your money will go to politically connected billionaires, period. That's never going to change. Fun to bitch about it, but it's just a fact of life.

LOL. No. It's a fantastic circuit and I'm as big a fan as anyone here ... having been to every COTA race of any kind and 4 GPs between Austin & Montreal. Go ahead & quiz me on anything F1 or COTA. Nobody says I have an ax to grind when I post my race pics or stories about tickets for sale, or other positive news from COTA or F1. I'm looking at the good and the bad, not one or the other.
That said, my 'fandom' doesn't rule my life. If something improper might be going on, then I think that needs to be given consideration. If this is improper, then I'll say so just as the TEF crap was/is improper. Rolling over and taking it is no way to go through life.
I guess by your definition I may have an ax to grind in the sense that I'm a huge fan of the racing and the circuit but I don't like what may be happening regarding the state subsidy of it.
