“Jobs for ushers and concessionaires don’t pay well”

I guess they don’t get a cut of the $10 beers and $5 waters.

Trump needs to ban ANY taxpayer monies to build stadiums for professional sport teams.

And remove the anti-trust exemption of the NFL.

Stadiums are corruption writ large. CTE is brain damage writ large. These are the real issues that the NFL is kneeling to ignore.

The future for No Fans Left, aka the former NFL!

Coming soon to a National Felon Stadium near to all of us!

Is it worth the cost?

Of course it is. Where else can you go to see pampered, exorbitantly paid leftist anti-American tattooed thugs disrespecting America and all those that gave the ultimate sacrifice so they could throw a ball around? If we didn't have these stadiums, we would miss that.

At least Roman Emperors provided bread... Over the past few years, U.S politicians have spent about $10 billion to $12 billion subsidizing sports stadiums...

To add insult to injury cities stick taxpayers with 98% of the cost of Stadiums then GIVE THE NAMING RIGHTS TO CORPORATIONS WHO CONTRIBUTE A DAMN 2% OF THE COSTS.

The Federal provision not to tax state/municipal bonds, does not in my opinion make a federal subsidy.

All States are treated the same and it doesn’t matter what they spend the money raised from the bonds on.

That’s like saying because the Federal government doesn’t tax freeper KeyLargo everytime he uses the bathroom that I and other federal taxpayers are subsidizing his craps.

No more taxpayer funded stadiums for billionaire owners and their millionaire players.

I wonder how many “no show” jobs and “executive vice president” sinecures there are at these stadiums.

Impose a $10mil/year fine on every franchise, distributed amongst the offending players who take a knee at the national anthem.
