While this is true, the cost to me will be minimal as I live in neither the City of Atlanta nor unincorporated Fulton County


It won't cost me anything since I live 3 states west, I still think it's wrong in general for taxpayers to subisdize billionaires and millionaires.

Georgia taxpayers are not subsidizing anything. The only money that the city of Atlanta is contributing is from a hotel/motel tax. Blank and the Falcons are paying 800 million plus the cost of any logistics are far as streets and things go.

I agree with the sentiment that tax payers shouldn't subsidize stadiums and whatnot.

My point was in response to the OTP person who thinks that his living outside of the perimeter prevents him from being taxed for this stadium.

Oh, and if you come to Atlanta for an LSU game and stay at a hotel, you're helping to fund the stadium.
