ff7 revelation proves common sense is dead as city council spends millions on pointless virtual statue
I saw this on the news this morning and I just about choked on my coffee. My tax dollars are paying for a massive, glowing, interactive statue of Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII right in the middle of downtown. They unveiled it yesterday and called it a "cultural revelation" for the community. Oh, please. There are potholes big enough to swallow a Smart Car on every street, the homeless shelter is overflowing, and the school board just cut art programs because they "ran out of money." But sure, let's drop a million bucks on a giant Buster Sword and some glowing Mako energy lights so tourists can take selfies. It’s an 'ff7 revelation' alright – a revelation that the people running this town have absolutely zero common sense. This isn't a tribute; it's a slap in the face to every working-class family trying to afford groceries.
