Roma in negative
I'm about 70 turns into my Rome Campaign and it's all going swimmingly except for my Capital, what ever i do i can barely keep it above -2000, regardless of what buildings i build, the rest of my empire has income i consider normal, when ever i play a non-Roman campaign my capital always brings in the most money, why is Rome such a money pit for me? I upgrade sensibly for a balanced city between happiness, income, taxes, game/races but it's always just draining money.

Each city pays a portion of the upkeep of your military in proportion to its population. So the largest city will pay the largest portion. A city's portion of the upkeep is sometimes more than the total income of the city and will show as negative income on the campaign map.
“The hardest thing in the world is to assume the mood of a warrior. It is of no use to be sad and complain and feel justified in doing so, believing that someone is always doing something to us. Nobody is doing anything to anybody, much less to a warrior.” ― Don Juan
"It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag." -- Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

It's all that free bread you're handing out to the plebs and the magnificent public buildings!
