It really isn't the business of government to take taxpayer dollars and built a stadium for the benefit of private enterprise. Oakland did that to lure back the Raiders, and it's continuing to cost the Alameda county taxpayers millions of dollars, while the owner of the football team rakes in the dough.

Jerry Jones is running the same scam with Arlington, TX: some folks are having their homes taken by emminent domain.

It will be interesting to see how the supremes rule on a similar case that is currently being reviewed. When we have lost our property rights, we have lost all our rights.
