Barrett Jackson stimulates the economy with the sale of some of those half million dollar cars and they send millions to the local and or state economies when they bring their show to town. I know just a little soccer tournament can bring millions into a town as far as hotels, food and tourism. Think what a big production like those shows brings!

re-read ol curt's post.... he said nothing about politicians caring.
the more people against it, the more pressure on the politicians to do what the people want or lose their job, ie power.......
our system works if the populous will take a stand and not back down, unfortunately, apathy rules
