So that their taxpayers can take it up the arse


Which taxes specifically are going up to pay for it?

Public funding for sports stadiums is ridiculous and something I oppose but "While the state provides $3B in funding," Kansas isn't really giving $3 billion according to the article. The entire project is $3 billion with Kansas providing $1.8 billion. "The Chiefs will receive $1.8 billion in public funding for a new $3 billion stadium in Kansas — the largest public subsidy ever for a U.S. sports stadium project."

Note Kansas has a 5.7% state income tax over 30k

Thats a lot of tax revenue received from salaries related to the Chief organization.

Not enough to recover 1.8 billion quickly but still a lot of money over the course of at least 30-40 years that stadium will keep the team there.

You’re not factoring the inevitable demand by Gracie Hunt for a $2 billion stadium renovation in 2050.
