Great article, Paul!

Here is all you really need to know:

Langley, head of the partnership and an apostle for regionalism and global competition, was paid $814,000 in 2015 — a base salary of $515,000 plus $299,000 in deferred compensation as an incentive for him to finish his five-year contract.

Those groups promoting regionalism, or whatever the flavor of the day is, exist because they create "jobs" for the already wealthy.

Sounds like the new "foundation" planned for Lakewood. It's basically a jobs program for those "needy" people who need even more money than they already have.
