Note it is in line with other similar schemes such as toll road leases...Indiana did the same scheme with their toll road leases..75 years and the firm that won got the same 10 times returns.
Selling of leases is a traditional way to pad budgets short-term, and then whoever did it retired and it becomes somebody else's problem. If you budget is leaking and you urgently need $BIG_BUCKS to plug it, just sell a 75-year lease and move on. Of course, if you eventually run out of leases to sell, it may be a bit of a problem, but it will be then, and now is now.
