Yesterday the Milwaukee Common Council voted to allocate $5,000 to
the Retail Christian Network to cosponsor of a breakfast at the International
Council of Shopping Centers annual convention in Las Vegas on May 20.
The Retail Christian Network describes
itself as: “an extension of Higher Call, which endeavors to make Christ known
within the Shopping Center industry.” Its website
states that it "provides an avenue for professionals in the shopping
center industry to connect and encourage one another with the life-changing
good news of Jesus Christ."
What public interest does this expenditure serve?
The city is closing fire houses. It has cut hours in branch libraries and reduced its budget to
buy books and other materials. It has experienced a 50% increase in potholessince last year.
How is this expenditure in the citizens’ interest?
