I'm a few. You. You. Springfield's talk 104-1 and welcome to the show everyone my name is Nick Reed Elder Law get that stuff taken care of you don't want to put it off you know you're young and I've been there before Still am and you think I don't have to worry about that stuff. What do I have to worry about? One of the lessons that worry rook has spoken of and she lives by it is you got a kid when that kid turns 18 You need to have them get some of this stuff done because even if you still live at home and you're 18 years old and you are in

some sort of accident and you are unable to make decisions for yourself. If you don't have somebody legally with legal documents written down to make those decisions for you then government's going to make the decisions for you and I think most people recognize that may not be in your best interest so as soon as you because you turn 18 you are a legal adult and again you may still be in high school and so you don't think of yourself that way like hey I still my parents house ma'am still going to school I you know I'm a kid you're 18 years old you're an illegal you are a legal adult and so from age 18 until you're dead you need to have this stuff done downloading something online and gonna do it for you you gotta have it done properly and if you live state-to-state you move from one state to another you need at the very least have an evaluation of it because all states are different with their rules and regulations whether it's a will a trust it's you know transferring of land how you're going to pay for your own future

platform the Alexander Keelan capsized during a storm and in nightmanners love death in today's date in 1977 in aviation's deadliest disaster 583 people were killed when a KLM Boeing 747 attempted to take off and heavy fog crashed into a pan ham 747 on an airport runway on the canary island and tenor free they have they have a uh a podcast on that whole deal it's really interesting to listen to in 1975 construction began on the transatlantic pipeline the 800 mile pipeline was completed just over two years later you'll know I wonder yeah I think about when I season starts to get warm and I hook up the hose and you first turn it on and you got to you're like sitting there waiting for the water to actually come out the end how long it would take for a pipeline like that when you open up the spiket well I wondered if it's three days later

and you're still I wonder what is going to get here but I wonder if they charge certain sections to make sure that it wouldn't leak as they kept building it now that's not nearly as imagined it that maybe something I'll I'll need to you two video and check it out in 1973 the godfather won the Academy Award for Best Picture of 1972 but it star Marlon Brando refused to accept his Oscar for Best Actor and then what would become one of the Oscars most famous moments sent in his place actor and activist Shaheen Littlefeather no Indian pun there who spoke out about the depiction of Native Americans in Hollywood if I remember right there was that this is how different Hollywood is today I think that there was actual active booing while that was occurring from some of the Hollywood audience not because the message so much but because it was back then

considered so uncouth to take an event like that and inject politics into it that they were just a Paul that Marlon Brando would be such a narcissistic nut job that he would use his opportunity in which they honored him gave him an award and instead of displaying appreciation for that using it for his own political purposes and and now if you don't do that you get criticized he was a man before his time he was a man before his time and and I think he actually bought into the conspiracy that people of Indian descent were being disrespected by Hollywood now was was this one of those instances in which that person ended up not actually being Native American no I actually think this was Native because you know that you remember the I think they were anti littering PSAs from the 80s oh yeah yeah that guy was not he was not some Italian that they dressed up like a Native

American put a feather in his and he's like we're crying yeah but Tonto and lone ranger wasn't Indian either so yeah Hollywood was disrespected yes of course and look at Elizabeth Warren it's called I mean she's absolutely disrespected as an American who thinks she's an Indian yeah she aged powwow chow hey in 1964 Alaska was hit by a magnitude 9.2 earthquake still the strongest on the record in North America and tsunamis that together claimed over 130 lives in 1968 Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gargaran the first man to orbit the earth in 1961 died cue the x-file music when his mid 15 jet crashed mysteriously during a routine training flight near Moscow he was 34 years old they had to shut him up because he didn't circle the earth that's

that's my thought process you know there I believe bringing back a brand new version of x-files and I think wait who's behind it um who's the the director that did get out and not Jordan Peele but the other I want to say he's behind supposed to be a little darker and edgier I think are you looking that up okay well M late Shenamanama mama well it's a paywall all right we'll look it up don't worry everyone we'll find out by the break hey in 19 or it's 1994 about in 1794 congress approved the act to provide a naval armament of six armed ships which provided the foundation of the permanent us navy and the most important thing to happen in today's date in history happened in 2022 when actor will smith slapped Chris rock on the stage at the 94th

Academy Awards ceremony winning the oscar for best actor just minutes later smith later resigned from the academy of motion pictures arts and sciences and received a 10 year ban from the oscar what is because that uh some he was making fun of his wife yeah I made some joke yeah that's what comedians do by the way they they make jokes because will smith said keep my wife's name name out of your mouth you know I'll say Chris rock for that the way that whole thing played out was remarkably I mean he kept it together almost so much if you remember some people thought the whole thing was a setup and I guess you're kind of stunned and shocked can you imagine you're sitting and then like is he joking and then he hits you and you're still managed to keep your composure which is why people believe it was a setup yeah you knew it was going to happen so because I think he's just so stunned I would you would like would not even know what to do I imagine I mean clearly

it wasn't a setup because who benefited certainly wasn't will smith I mean I was listen to a podcast yesterday and I forget who it was but basically they were making the case that I would be a conspiracy theorist because I question whether or not Donald Trump was even shot in the year now yes they were but that died that day yeah but simply for the fact that I question whether or not the dawn had a wound makes me a conspiracy theorist well wouldn't I also question the death of Charlie well yes and I will continue to question that of course even if they can fix the patchy that they set up for sure well that's fine you're allowed to do whatever you want I was the director is I guess I was wrong on the director of the new ex files but there is a new one somebody named Ryan Kubler I don't know that I'm there's a new ex files there's it yeah it's so they have a new

modern a new scully I think you know it specifically says that they are not recasting molder and scully these are going to be two new agents oh okay I think it maybe I had read an article it's supposed to be a little more dark and gritty I get so sick of tired of Hollywood remaking things and then you end up they take away from the very rarely does a remake add something to the original character my one of my biggest frustrations is when they write oh this is nostalgia this people let let's bring it back and then they change it fundamentally and and then they act like they're mystified as to why it didn't work or they change it in through a woke lens and then blame the audience for not liking it accusing them of being what ghost busters is a perfect example that ghost busters coming back and then they had four gals and when people weren't enthusiastic about

it then they accused people of being massaging well no it's just different it would be like having steel magnolias a remake of it but it's a bunch of guys instead well you clearly it wouldn't have the same dynamic because women interacting as much as people want to deny this on the left is much different than men reacting with one another but then they get all but hurt and well the only reason that it's got to be because of misogyny or maybe because it's not the same thing well they could have very easily remade the what was the movie with the gay cowboy broke back mountain yeah broke that mountain they could have easily redone that one with two women instead of two dudes that would have been much different so why don't they redo that one with two women well but no they always they always take a movie that is halfway decent or a show like x files which is has a it has a cult following if I can even use the word cult following sure but

and then to try to remake that of course you just said that the the agents aren't going to be sculling mullers so at least they were smart enough to realize not to try to recast the original yeah now you really got me think about the broke back mountain thing we got time arts with us here this morning as we continue the friday road show to heroes breakfast as well free breakfast for veterans till 9 a.m. at scrambleers i'm naked time arts is joining us here this morning i have scrambleers because he's awesome hey let's talk about springfield yes on one now this is the tax that the voters will approve maybe did you did you did you get a chance to hear the mayor and on wednesday had mayor shrag on and presiding commissioner bob dexanon no i did you go listen i'll just be curious your thoughts on it okay i will i will listen but key facts before you vote i got their flyer in the mail and independent study found the project would create hundreds of permanent jobs and attract new

private investment to springfield if the city of springfield would like to attract businesses okay i won't say that because i'll get in trouble well i will i will say as i have for some time there's a lot easier ways like quit being the d-word to business owners and so i mean it is this cons we talked about this a few weeks ago this business on like just right off walnut lawn and south cambell you know it's a venue and they were just what's it start us yeah and just pounding the away at the game in a temporary alcohol license and then took it away and they're like well because we got this arbitrary rule you can't be within 200 feet of other places and one of them they met they're like we're not within 200 feet we measured it and the city says of course well we'll send out measuring experts to to show that you're wrong and then the other one was

Chipotle and Chipotle it's like we don't even have alcohol on site we don't even sell it but you know for what it at apparently doesn't matter and so you know it's just that stuff and so here's a business going to go out of business and one of the people involved in that told me that they did have a conversation with a council member who said oh yeah this don't worry this what we'll give this take care of then came back it's like oh sorry i was told there's nothing we can do i mean that was the level of representation so the stuff like that you fix those problems that might help a little bit yeah and i'm sorry i can't remember the name of the business but there was also the business that the the venting system that they were required to install was like overkill for what it was that they wanted to do and it was an ungodly amount of money so they just said no we're not going to locate the springfield i mean i could go on and on and on and and it's it's known one of the reasons that they did work to get David Cameron from Republic to here was because they there was a recognition that they're losing businesses

to surrounding communities and so because Republic was one of the surrounding communities that has been seen a huge boom they're like oh well let's get that guys over there but it's still i don't know that that's going to fix the problem because it's their it's a cultural mindset that is the biggest hindrance to business in this community and i just don't know that i david Cameron what he can bring to the table will be able to get them to understand i don't know we'll see if if if you ever want to know somebody's mindset absolutely give them a little modicum of power or authority and see what it is the money yeah money actually it's true it's freaking insane the amount of it's true regulation that is involved in this city in order to contribute business to now now they also say a modern convention and events center will help springfield attract conventions tournaments and major events that currently go to other cities a citizens oversight committee will ensure the funds are spent exactly as promised and only for

this project the only way that the tax payers can make sure that a it's not the city of springfield personnel who are going to be paying this tax so i call this a socialism tax let's tax people who don't live here simply for coming here so we can have a convention center because this tax appears to be for hotels motels and one of those airbnb so that's how we end up paying that as a person who on occasion will have to spend the night out somewhere nothing infuriates me more than renting an 80 90 or a hundred dollar room to pay for the room the following day to find out just forty dollars and freaking taxation on it because of a city tax a county tax a hotel motel tax a convention center tax this tax that tax so now i don't stay in any yeah

i always go in an outside area to make sure that i'm not the only thing that makes it better is when they're like oh yeah oh you parked here we're going to charge you for that to it reminds me of there's a line in there are a couple lines in master of the house from laymirs and the whole thing is about this you know the folks the husband and wife that run a quote hotel and all the things that they're going to charge you for and you know they charge you for looking in the mirror twice you know for all of these things just nickel and diamond you and i every time to your point you see some of these additional charges that get added on there and it makes me think of that song master of the house from laymirs more time arts coming up here as we continue the friday road show and heroes breakfast scramblers i'm name springfields talk one over one the first alert forecast from ootharchs first meteorologist Tom Smith sponsored by jns automotive today will see a 50 percent

chance of showers and thunderstorms throughout the morning and mid afternoon otherwise mostly cloudy with a high near 58 tonight mostly clear with a low around 31 for your saturday at sunny with a high near 61 and taking a look at sunday mostly sunny with a high near 76 everyone look at storm arts so if people remember this this convention center originally was on the ballot but it was for the extension of the three quarter percent are a portion of if i remember correctly the three quarter percent sales tax that was going to drop off because of the police fire pension fund okay so they were trying to extend that by the process of it's not a new tax you're already paying this tax so it's no big deal it's kind of paying it elsewhere okay so now they they've painted so that it's not a tax at all because you're not paying it only the people who come into

springfield who stay in hotels motels and air being bees are going to be paying for this but they don't discuss the fact to my knowledge and i'm going to go back and listen to your Wednesday show yeah i'll be curious to get your yeah your thoughts on it i'll talk about that next Friday okay but if liberty shmibberty was on it i will enjoy ripping this one to shreds but you never know he actually he wasn't the bowl i'd say he was about 20 percent of the conversation he was more there as an overall since i got supporter of the concept whereas mayor shrug was charged with answering more of the questions regarding the numbers and does this and what do you say would people who say this and question that you know part part of the is springfield already host a crapload of stuff that brings people into town we've got the great southern bank

arena or whatever the heck it's called that bring in concerts of course a convention center could bring in concerts depending on seating they've got football tournaments they've got baseball tournaments they now have the soccer fields out there with and i think that's green county out there but that still brings in businesses springfield as people will stay at hotels and motels well and i had a green county smart they'll find a developer to put a count a hotel motel in the county that way people can exempt themselves from the exorbitant taxation of the city of springfield well i can tell you their argument and there there's probably a degree of truth to it though how much is up for debate that there are some organizations or groups or convention events that because the accommodations we have aren't fitting for them that they do go elsewhere now is that one a year or is that a thousand a year you know that's to me and i think you'll hear in the

conversation the real murky area is these numbers and and where did these numbers how did they come up with these numbers because this and this and this and i would encourage actually anyone to go back and let and we actually are going to read air it the monday before the election along with also in that same show we had the CEO of visit springfield which used to be the convention's visit or bureau he was on as well and he talked more just about the overall concept of conventions and what he believed it would be in terms of the benefit not so much of the numbers that the city is providing to people when they come to make the decisions did you have the a CEO of take five or give five or whatever five in to give his opinion on whether or not it would benefit his organization no what the former city manager greek burs i'm going to vote no on it now contrary to popular belief i'm not a no on all taxation i think in reality there's a tax out in strafford

that deals with the fire protection district i think the the the people and i haven't done the numbers but i think the people have been really well represented by the strafford fire department and the manner in which they have used the money if there's one out in nixah you know i am not right i am not the the person who just says no on all taxation if it is specific and it is for a reason that in reality i in my opinion or any one's opinion it's for public safety and it's for your safety then i'm not opposed to that form of taxation because it's going direct to the organization from which it is that i may need assistance from at one point in time i don't mind that taxation but when you are making the point simply because you want a convention center

and then you're going to tax people who are unaware that this tax exists and then you're going to sell it to the people well don't worry about it you're not paying it other people are paying forward and you're going to benefit from it until you attend the event that you want to go to and all of a sudden you find out that it costs $12 to park because that's not going to be handled by the city that's going to be handled by private entities a ham and tower right there could basically cordon off their parking lot go you know we can charge $12 or the expo center well but even the city could because if i recall one of the questions that i had to ask was regarding where like where does the money come from if this doesn't quote pay for itself right general revenue and well it was the the the verbiage was there are numerous mechanisms if i remember right

that can be utilized and so whether that's current and there's just so much unknown is the thing i honestly believe that i mean what you're talking about the tax part of this yeah and i'm only talking about just the convention center i haven't even added the hdr 173 174 whether trying to try to eliminate your income tax portion off of your check and what's going to take its place a massive sales tax well yeah i mean you got it that one everything good services and stuff that you don't normally pay taxes on right now but before before before we we get to that i as i listen to people giving their thoughts on this it's interesting because the people who don't seem to be or very clearly don't support it they're not even actually talking about the tax component to it

that seems to be not irrelevant but the least of their concerns they're just there's so many what ifs and the belief the numbers don't add up or that this actually isn't going to even work i mean i had a conversation with a couple of people who would they do like this is what they do they actually book the places for conventions for company and stuff and you know there are different people in different capacities but it all involved and they were saying that for a number of reasons springfield even with a convention center they would not book springfield now that doesn't mean that represents everyone but i think i had a thought about before and this was talked about a Wednesday that one of the the convention booking individuals it said to me is that the lack of direct flights to springfield is that that's one of the decisions that gets made it's not just you have cool stuff in the city but if you have people all over the country picking a place in which

most of those people are able to get there for a direct flight people that are at least near an airport and springfield has compared to so many other areas of the country that have convention centers and cities very few direct flights and so that for a lot of the decision-makers right there is enough to say well no we're not we're not going to do that now again that's not going to be for everyone but my point is anytime there's a somewhat focus on an area in which a person in some of these industries or business owners have concerns that the tax itself isn't even really brought up which isn't which isn't a good sign for the city because that tells me or the people want the convention center that they have a lot more going against than the tax component to this but what else is also wrong with our system and it's this is a creation of too much government is that you know how like when you you have a convention that you can block off rooms

for a lesser rate because of the convention why can an airline go hey there's a convention in springfield we need a direct flight because most of the people for this are let's say they're going to fly in from Kansas City or fly in from Denver Colorado or fly why can't we have a direct flight that week coming directly in the springfield leaving springfield I guess directly back I mean I guess unless you fly private you can't do it or you can charter I guess but you know the the cost of that I just I don't know enough about that to know whether that's feasible I'm not sure but let's take a break Tom Marks with this years we continue the Friday Road show from scramble I'm Tom Marks with this year it is a heroes breakfast free breakfast for veterans air services heating cooling plumbing electrical delta roofing and the warriors journey along the scramblers buying breakfast for veterans till nine o'clock this morning Tom Marks is here hey now one of the things that benefits springfield or I'm maybe I'm not properly phrasing it is they have a

built-in voting base that they're absolutely going to go to the polls to vote yes on this sucker so in order to defeat it there literally has to be a mobilization of people far and above the size of the voting block that are simply going to walk down to the poll because they believe that the city of springfield is going to benefit from this and I forget what organization did it back in the mid 2000 somewhere that took a bunch of different venues and how much it cost to build it versus how much it cost to maintain it the and whether or not the facility is actually paid for itself in revenue generated from the events that it's holding and back in that time frame the Atlanta motor speedway was the only one out of all these different nationwide events that paid for itself I would bet the the football stadium Kansas City's arrowhead I would bet that it has

never actually in revenue provided for enough money not only to build it but to also maintain that facility because there's always a tax that involves what we have to support the stadium we have to because a lot of those monies go back to the organization from which are the events are being held there they benefit in some manner I mean look at Kansas in building the new arrowhead that's the only thing I can call it for now the the only the only organization that's going to benefit from all those different bonds is Kansas City Chiefs well and it appears if all it's sudden now these stories are popping up about you know these people over here in these tax but they didn't they weren't really aware that they may be on the hook for this so there's some questions as to Darren Chaplin he was on the I said is there like a chance that this may not

actually happen he's like well you know there's already rumblings that a lot of the things that were promised may not be actual deliverable on the Kansas side of things but I want to I want to put an asterisk next to something that you said because I've thought about this and the built-in voting base for this right because this is a thing that that municipalities always benefit from when they ask for a tax increase it is their people right who benefit from it so if you're wanting to have an increase when it comes to the school districts and the school district employees and their families or law enforcement or fire or whatever it may be and so and leading up to the November vote the only time I talked about this was like the reason I'm not talking about this is because it's going to pass springfield always passes and by the way the city and they've kind of acknowledged this they got what they they call quote bad advice to just keep their mouth shut and put it on the ballot it'll pass because of the same reasons that I thought that it would pass they realized

that that did not work so I was thinking about this and I'm like well okay it was in November so that's a difference you got a higher voter turnout then you do in the spring went off and times these things are on ballots but here's I so I started thinking to myself the built-in voting base that quote benefits and I thought okay well who is that for the conventions center and I realized I don't think there's that many who would it be who who is it that thinks this is going like with fire fire tax and you fire fighters and of course then you know I have some of the community that are sympathetic towards it obviously fire fighters families fire fighter neighbors friends police same things school same things but what of the convention center like there's not really a convention center base of employees with extended and so that there is a tax base that benefits from it yeah but it's not I don't think people feel it as much as oh I'm going to get pension because of this or I'm going to get a raise or we're going to get extra fire

stations because of it there I don't think there's as much of a direct I bet that's happening behind the scenes yeah but yeah and it may be but I just don't and I'm not saying that there isn't a degree of it but I don't think it is as strong as it is with other vote increase request and I think that may be part of the reason that it didn't pass because you don't have and in addition to that there may be some of these other entities in the city that have long-term plans in which they know internally hey in eight years we're going to have to ask for a tax increase and they may be aware of the fact that you know people may be feeling tapped out and do we really want to five years down the road come asking for a tax increase when the people you know just voted for another tax increase on a convention center and start to sort of self-preservation

leave think maybe it isn't a good idea for this to pass after all when it comes to our need for a tax increase down the road and that may be overthinking a little bit but I did find myself just really trying to figure out why is this one different so starkly so than some of the others and I think that may be part of it I think one of their failures is is they brought it back onto the ballot knowing full well that they just tried to convince the people just a election or two ago yeah to extend the other tax now I think also on April 7th is the hotel a terror issue now that'll be in August that'll be in August that I'm almost sure that's going to be in August it's too bad it wasn't at the same time because I'm a hotel a terror people absolutely would say no well and this is also part of the problem that the city has is they have and I don't while and I'm sure in their minds these things are not connected they are to the the relationship between the city and the citizens and the business owners that's I think a huge part

of this and to have that constant reminder in the news going on that this is what while the city is coming to the same people that you know and the people that are gathering signatures to overturn you because you will not listen to us at the same time there that those people are saying hey you know would you please pass this thing for us that we already ask you it's that whole environment that has been created is not helpful for me get a break more with time arts coming up here from scramblers I mean we got time arts with this here I mean we're at a point now we're literally the the city believes that it's going to require the government a creation of the government system in order to build a convention center because in reality if if a convention center was actually going to be something that would generate revenue for businesses the businesses would come together to build a convention center but they also know that the city of springfield makes

it so freaking miserable to build something here that no way are they going to build something for that would benefit the city and benefit themselves someone sent in a text on the pyramid roofing company text line I had not thought of this and it folds into you had you had made the comment about how you know the block off rooms oftentimes and you get room rates discounted rates speaking of price of rooms when that convention or event is scheduled every other hotel hikes their rates up so you're paying for a room that is double for an event that you're not attending while while others get the special reduced rate for the event that a company is sending and paying for their people to so now I don't know if doubles you know fair assessment but the the point being here I had not thought of this that's so true saying well it's a people who are going to be doing the conventions and coming here to pay for it but they do they always have reduced rates for those

people but if you are somebody else coming to the to the community or to stay at a hotel here visiting family or a tourist whatever and you're not part of that convention you're the one that's paying the higher price because of the tax without that reduced rate that comes along with the convention deal I had not thought of it it's a very good point I stated a motel in job because I didn't feel like driving back and forth for the job that I was doing and I had stayed there prior and I'm not going to mention the motel or hotel somebody configured out based on the event that was occurring but when I stayed there the one night it was like $88 a night then the pride truck sign show moved in a few weeks later and I went to the same motel to get a room $192 it's like are you freaking kidding me it was just oh there's a big event in town well and to the point of the person who texted this in do the people that were there for that event

get a discount of grade less than that while you pay higher right and that's and that does happen a lot and don't forget it as a springfield resident you can't stay in a springfield motel anyway which are those are hotel rules right I that should be cased by case I think they do that well anyway we're out of time but that's a whole not a lot of motels and hotels have a deal where of you within a 50 mile range where your driver's license is they won't allow you to stay there it's like there's another he's getting me well and it's not I guess they don't want you to have an orgy or some sort of party in their room and tear the room apart and they don't want black people are married women staying there that's true Tom arts thank you as always appreciate it we're in second hour wrapping up another hour of hero's breakfast here at scrambleers I'm Nick Reed
