Reply to comment by RededHaid in New England Civil War Museum Wants To Take CT Soldiers Uniform Home by Unionforever1865

It's a couple rooms in a small town hall that was originally built by Civil War vets. The value of that building alone is enough for the town to keep up the museum until they need a new one.

And even if it wasn't you're really too cheap for a town hall museum?

Museums can have endowments, donor lists, grants, patrons. Were the museum talking about how much they’ve raised and are now turning to the public at large, I can see people opting in if they are civil war buffs. My money to spend. Cheap? Not my monkey, not my zoo.

You live in the country they secured and enjoy rights they fought for and added to our Constitution. Go spit on their graves while you're at it.
