re: Sports Teams Tax Subsidies

The econonomic impact on the city of Atlanta was $400 million. If the Final four wasn't canceled this year, they likely would have benefitted another $150 million. Taxpayers paid around $700 million, almost "covered" in 2 events. Then you include property taxes, state payroll taxes, utilities, jobs created, sales taxes from merchanise/concessions, all the other shite they bring in and pay out to the city on a monthly basis, its obvious very quickly the city benefits more from having a team and a stadium than not. I can't even really believe we're having this discussion.

Taxpayer money should NEVER be stolen and given to ANY private business.
You must not pay much in taxes.
