I’m not so sure that’s the truth, but I disagree with your logic.

If 50%+1 of voters thinks it’s OK to take your cash from your wallet does that make it OK?

One of the general principles that should rule Gov’t is no subsidies for private business.

None of that is OK. Your problem isn't with the NFL; it's with your elected officials and therefore with your fellow citizens.

I agree 100% that government shouldn't be subsidizing private business. But if you were to rank every company in the U.S. that receives a government subsidy the NFL probably doesn't rank among the top one thousand of them.

P.S. One of the ways governments get a lot of local support for financing these sports venues is the way they set it up so as to minimize the expenditures for local taxpayers. Most of these stadium financing deals involve the use of hotel and rental car tax revenues to support long-term bonds. What this means is that taxpayers from somewhere else are the ones who ultimately pay the cost of the stadium.
