Regarding culture and affordability, there are some crazy things. In the next city there is an opera house. Which runs so hard into the red that each and every ticked is subsidized with several hundred Euro. The tickets are still expensive enough so that only the rich can afford them.

And this in a city that already runs on a big deficit.

Now there's a creative way to pilfer the working class' money, have their taxes fund things exclusively used by the rich. Next they'll make a 'public' marina for the local yacht club.
