LA is so overrun by Mexicanos now, I don't know if there are enough people to support a normal sport like football, not futbol, or however it's spelled.

LA Crypts, Bloods, or Mexican Mafia... Tough choice.

The Los Angeles Coliseum is in the hood. Even if it was fixed up I wouldn't go see anything there. It would be perfect for Raiders fans though ... oh ..., forget about it.
To: GulliverSwift
How're you going to pay for that one, gov? Oh wait, you won't, the taxpayers' grandchildren will.

Schwarzenegger signed Assembly Bill 2805, which essentially aids the Hoover Redevelopment Zone by committing specific tax revenue to the stadium project. Appropriately named... as it sucks up the Taxpayer's money like a vacuum.

Hmmm. This is the RINO foisted on us as a "fiscal conservative." When did giving taxpayer funds to multi-millionaire sports teams become conservative?
To: GulliverSwift
I don't think L.A. has the fan base (yes, I know they have the population) to support a new team. The only teams I have heard mentioned (as far as getting an existing team) are the Cardinals, Chargers and Colts, and even though the Chargers are close by, I'll bet they wont move either.

Awesome! It's about time. Hopefully the Governor can force this through the blatant stupidity of the LA City counsel.
I wish it was at a different site in LA, but it's much better than what we have - nothing.
As for those crying about this being a bad idea? Do you have any idea how much revenue and jobs this will create? I swear, some people are anti-everything.

But remember, we're not allowed to nitpick Arnold for this, or for anything else he does. It doesn't matter what he does because for some people, he can do no wrong. Just stick that 'R' next to your name and you're deserving of worship in some peoples' eyes.

FDR already did that one - use taxpayer money to fund massive government projects that drag on and on without resulting in any real economic growth. Arnold could generate a lot of jobs by building a drivable bridge from Los Angeles to Tokyo. Do you want him to do that too?
The government doesn't owe you a job. The wealthy do not owe you a job (especially not via their tax dollars). The government is not a tool of job creation - free markets are. If someone can afford to stick a team in LA, then super. If they can't, then the taxpayers of California should not be forced to pay for it.

I have the ultimate confusion technique for 2008. Hildebeast declares as a Republican. What will the robots do?

But Arnold's done some good this week.
Per A.I.A.D.A. report:
California Gov. Schwarzenegger vetoed a slue of Democratic measures Thursday including, one designed to ban outsourcing, and another seeking to place limits on dealer financing practices, reports the Los Angeles Times. Democrats...castigated Schwarzenegger for vetoing Thursday the last of five bills designed to discourage companies from moving California jobs overseas, reports the Times. The bill, AB 2715 would have required telemarketers and customer service representatives to disclose their location when asked by a California resident. AB 3021 would have required employers with more than 250 workers to tell the state how many people they employed domestically and abroad. California Chamber of Commerce president, Allan Zaremberg applauded the Governor: "By rejecting all 10 job-killer bills that made it to his desk, Gov. Schwarzenegger followed through on his campaign promise to stimulate Californias jobs climate and reinvigorate our economy." Schwarzenegger rejected another Democratic measure, which sought to limit dealer financing practices. If passed, the bill would have limited the financing charges dealers could set for loans and forced them to reveal credit scores used to set those rates, which consumer activists said dealerships had been caught lying about. Following Thursdays decision, Schwarzenegger and the car dealers lobby said they were willing to work with lawmakers next year to craft a more acceptable version. Said Peter Welch, president of the California Motor Car Dealers Association: "We appreciate the governors ability to look beyond the exaggerated claims of consumer benefit for this bill and recognize it for the lemon it is.
