"According to published reports, Rayburn is going to earn a monthly salary of $125,000, significantly more than Casey was making."

Apparently the state is willing to invest they atre paying this guy 1.5 a year.. What's the big deal about an additional 28.5 mil to support an industry that employees folks and yields tax dollars both directly and indirectly? 30 mil isnt a lot of money for an industry!
