I heard last night that here is how this works. With gov support:
We switch to different hotels that the gov co-owns. These hotels are
more expensive, but we will get a discount, *and* the gov will pay
50% of the reduced price.
The list price of the hotels is less than about twice what we are
paying now, so this _should_ be a good deal for us. However, it might
not be the 20k$ benefit I assumed.
Anyone else with more information about the budget, please update the
budget, or if it is an uncertainty, reply to this message. I'll send
out another status tonight.
