I doubt Jindal agrees to spend state funds for this and I'm 100% against John Q. Public's monies used for this.
There is nothing worse on Earth than a sick child without the means to get better. Take your Republicanism to another planet.

So asking who is gonna pay for this is Republicanism? It seemed like a reasonable question to me.
The state is broke. I'd also like to know how the "free" services are going to be paid for. It's one thing to donate x dollars to build the hospital, but the yearly bill is going to be the obstacle.
But, whats a couple more billion a year in Democratism...

There is nothing on Earth I love more than my 4 month old son. God forbid anything ever happen to him. I'm very open to anything to benefit children. I simply asked earlier how the project was being funded. This is the first I've heard about the project and wondered the logistics. No one can answer the question here and I should have known it wasn't something a Ranter could answer. I also happen to be in the commercial construction business and we do several million revenue a year in health care settings.
I have several different reasons to ask how the project was being funded. If OLOL is funding the project, the GC is already chosen. If it is going out for public bid as a state or federal job, we are not interested in bidding any portion of it. I'm certain the political discussion will occur later on when more information is released and the project gets more legs under it.
I am still confused about the "free" comments, but that will be determined at a later date.

No need for this to be political. I'm conservative and totally disagree with him. Both political parties are FUBAR. I think he is just misguided if he thinks this would be a "charity" hospital. Sounds to me that it would be more of a St Jude's type place.
