No Public Funding for a Vikings Stadium


No Public Funding for a Vikings Stadium
The Issue
With the economy in the shape it currently is, a $30 million contribution from the State of Minnesota is inappropriate for a billionaire's football team. And funding a stadium is no guarantee the team will stay beyond the lease, and could even produce another demand for another new stadium when that lease is up. When does it end? Let's save the money for the poor, the unemployed, and the taxpayers who should have a say in how their taxes are spent.
