So yeah. I guess if you ignore all the problems with this proposal then it does seem silly.. but that's on you and willful ignorance. |

St. Louis losing a team does not have the worst optics. They had already lost the Cardinals NFL franchise that they got from Chicago and although the Rams won it all while in St. Louis, that franchise was only in St. Louis for a short fraction of its existence, especially compared to where it is has mainly been, the city it moved back to. |

You sound like a bitter douchebag who walks around wearing a "Tax is Theft" T-shirt while drawing a welfare check and food stamps each month. |

And the deal that was rejected shifted many of the operating costs to the teams.

The people that allow the Chiefs to walk to a different state should have to where a big Chiefs Red L on their forehead for the rest of their lifes. $150.00 a year each? And that probably doesn't account for the tax revenue collected from people from out of the county that come to see the Chiefs and Royals.

No, but we should vote on large effort-specific "special purpose" taxes. That's what happened here.

If you were to buy on average $300/week in Jackson County the amount of money that would be going to the stadiums is $58.50 for the entire year. That is 16 cents a day or $4.88/month. So you would be paying $2.44 a month to each the Royals and Chiefs. Yeah let's lose all the tax revenue from players game day checks and employees of the teams checks, so that people will at most put less than $5/month in there pocket. Hold on though, I don't think the county is going to just lose millions of dollars in tax revenue. They'll get that money back from the tax payer somehow. |

Are we pretending a county subsidizing a billionaire's entertainment business is anywhere near the same thing as funding something like a new school or water treatment plant? We vote on those things all the time and they're a hell of a lot more important than something as trivial as sports entertainment.

Now a tax I was referring to is a property tax. A portion of that tax goes to funding schools that are zoned in that area. Should someone who has no children or children that do not go to those schools be forced to fund them without a say in it? If so, why? |

Yes, otherwise the generation eventually wiping your ass won’t know how to read the instructions.
