The Walmart debacle comes to mind; The state sold the last large parcel in the heart of our city to walmart and they are erecting a large monolithic "mausoleum" of a structure, an unfortunate but appropriate ironic simile, as iwi kupuna has been found on the site a couple months ago and have been treated very disrespectfully since.
I thought that the state and the developers learned this lesson over the dispute regarding the location of the Ritz-Carlton. Unfortunately, not.
as long as there is money to be made, as long as we have polititians, developers and lawyers proliferating the landscape, this situation will repeat itself ad infinitum. Those with something to gain always hope the proletariat and those with something to lose have a short attention span and an even shorter memory.
