Collier Swecker - News & Opinion about Real Estate, Small Business, Law, & Technology

Collier Swecker video blogs his idea that will help the Birmingham Area Counties / Municipalities or the State of Alabama raise much needed funds. The governmental entities are always complaining about a lack of revenue, yet, with the exception of Hoover, they do not want to operate like a business. They must think outside the box. We have these Electronic Highway Message Boards that are displaying worthless drive time information (with exception of Amber Alerts) and very rarely display accident information. They cost taxpayers nearly $300,000 a piece and they see zero return on our investment. We need to have the local / state governments start allowing advertising on them along with their worthless information and the governments would be able to fund road projects or any other projects from the revenue without having to add a sales tax increase etc. There are so many businesses that would pay to have their business advertising be displayed literally  in front of a captive audience. I know that there are some people that will say that it is a distraction, but that cell phone is a much bigger distraction and they already want us distracted with their worthless information.
