The Charlotte Hornets are the local NBA team. Likely heavily subsidized by the city. So why not pass a state law that all subsidies to corporations must have the approval of the state?

Then, if the NBA really wants to get shirty, then another law that requires professional sports teams in the state to be licensed. A license requiring transparency in ownership, that is, that the owners must disclose their financial holdings.

While all of this sounds severe, it is past time for states to fight back against corporations that are trying to force them to adopt repulsive laws and regulations. And the only stick that works on those mules costs them millions of dollars.

I agree it is within a state’s prerogative to regulate within its own state.

The libs are trying to isolate individual states and make everything a federal issue so the states lose that power. It is why they so fervently want a liberal Supreme Court.

think of the damage they could so. remember when they had the house, senate and president and what they shoved down our throats like Obamacare?
