He is a slum-lord/speculator on a minor scale compared to Sam Rappapport,
but otherwise there is no difference betweent the two. Compared to the two
of them, Mike Drum looks like a saint.

And right now, Rigdon/Miller is only a month or so away from being ranked
right up there in the Hall of Shame along with Rappaport and Vaughn. The
properties they bought from Drum on Sansom and Chestnut Streets have been
vacant and untouched now for over 18 months.

They are also prime examples of why the Land tax idea makes sense... the
longer the properties rot the less they wind up paying in taxes, because
the "structures" are no longer "worth anything."
