Donald Trump could owe $100 million for improper tax breaks on his Chicago tower

"Donald Trump may not owe anything for improper tax breaks on his Chicago tower"

Decades ago, I created a local cable access program, "Video Games Report", and asked video game companies for free game units and cartridges, promising a "potential audience" of 350,000 viewers. I would be surprised if 300 people watched the show, but I received thousands of dollars of freebies just using long distance phone calls and a Selectric typewriter to make fake letterhead (pre-laser days). The word "POTENTIAL" canceled out everything else.

(I parlayed that into a job writing reviews for mass-circulation magazines, so it wasn't a total loss for most of those companies.)
