you know after reading all these articles i figure you would have learned a bit more.
I've been around long enough to know that when the government is trying to finance something, it will always come out of taxpayer's pocket in some way or another.

The money for the muni does not come from your taxes. Read it they use bonds for it. If you don't want it you don't buy bonds.
I've done all the reading that I need to do. I've seen municipal operations which tax people to pay for services, and I have seen municipal services which are subsidized by non-subscribers through other municipally run utilities. They all try to claim that its "something for nothing" but all the evidence shows that this is not the case. They also try to claim that the rate hikes for the "non-related" services have "nothing to do" with the under-priced network service when that clearly doesn't pass the smell test. Governments all over the USA use and continue to get away with accounting shenanigans that would make Enron and WorldCom blush. They have all sorts of ways to hide the true costs of projects to make them easier sells to the public. The use of "bonds" with "no public risk" is just another rabbit in the hat.
