Many of those small businesses turned out to be major corporations that have repaid their loans 1,000 fold by creating jobs and growing the economy. I'm not employed or connected to the OAC in any way. I just don't like it when the first thing people talk about cutting is funding for arts or education instead of pet projects. In Stillwater, a couple of years ago they stripped the gravel off of a 5 mile section of Fairgrounds road and paved it. There are many sections of road that need paved, such as a 5 mile section of 19th street that serves hundreds of people. That section of fairgrounds? Has 5 houses on it, one if which is a big campaign contributor. I don't like BS, and killing the funding for non-profit art and history over tax breaks for oil is BS. Big oil can afford to do without, a small non-profit can't. The bill is DOA as of today anyway, so moot point.</blockquote>
