unless the Vikings generate billion of revenue in Minny then then It's hard to justify the means. However a tax increase is out of th equestion... Maybe a lottery that is voluntary with the proceeds going towards the stadium, but tax increases to keep a football team in ludicrous
In Buffalo they are going to spend about $100 million, but they bring in close to $20 million - $25 million in tax revenues a year from the Bills operation.. Which means every 4 - 5 years you can put money into the stadium and it balances out.. it's a decent investment of tax money.
Can Minnesota make $1 billion in tax revenues on a new stadium ? How long would it take ?? if the tax revenue is paid back over 20 years they might be able to justify it. That's a tall order...
