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.

So, crony capitalism is “OK” if “someone else” is having to foot the bill? Gotcha.
