Good work.

A happened across a book on stadium funding influence on city revenues once in the library and leafed through it.

Then discovered many rich people have gotten the taxpayers to foot the bill (if not for all of the stadium then for freeway exits, access roads, bridges for pedestrians, demolition of buildings and the all important tax breaks.) And instead of the bars, restaurants and stores plus seasonal parking and vendor employees making the money back, the only ones really getting rich after it all were the original rich people.
