An old, inaccurate, incorrect article designed to appeal those who believe their faux moral outrage is an adequate substitute for their lack of brains.

Lol. Tom, you should do movie reviews. That was awesome.

So they do not mention that the state makes millions in sales tax per game. Team moves out of state means huge loss in money.

You can call it lack of brains if you want, but I will never be on board for taxpayer funded stadiums. Sales tax this, business revenue, that: I get it. But principally it is wrong. Some people can't pay their mortgage, or struggle feeding their families, but they still pay for a stadium that will make multi-billionaires even richer.

 

Fundamentally it's corporate welfare in an industry of super rich elites that don't need the money.

Also, it was better for everyone when they were. Now they can fully exploit the tax system for how terrible it is.
