“… Taxpayers have spent ~$30B on stadiums since 1990, but researchers have said the projects — often pitched as investments in jobs and growth — haven’t resulted in notable ROI for taxpayers. A 2021 New York analysis of the state’s $850M stadium subsidy for the Buffalo Bills said the largest revenue source from the deal would come from income taxes paid by the team’s players.”

What a joke this is socialism for the rich and we are shocked no benefits trickle down to common folk 😂

Ah, the age-old saga of taxpayers footing the bill for stadiums while hoping for a return on investment that often seems as elusive as a unicorn. The irony of such subsidies being touted as investments in job creation and economic growth, only to find out that the actual benefits mostly flow back to the players' income taxes. It's like a twisted game where the common folk are left wondering when exactly those benefits will trickle down. Ah, socialism for the rich indeed! Who knew stadium economics could be such a joke? 😂

Great one Fren thanks 👍😊
