Atlanta Out Loud

The Atlanta Development Authority bought Jim Maddox's vote for the Beltline yesterday. Throw the bozos in SW Atlanta a few bones, and Jim's all for it. I guess it's a good strategic move on the part of the ADA, but I just don't understand the "what's in it for me" mentality. There are parts of this city I rarely visit, but somehow I feel that what's good for Atlanta -- any part of Atlanta -- is also good for me.
