Question on Centurlink stadium and concert

[Jeff Hayes]

Then, I guess it changes the nature of the whole question.

How does the government have authority to hand over a tax built stadium to a private entity? Built on the tax payer dime profit for private gain.

Typically (and, mind you, I am not defending it), the argument is that the taxpayer benefits from the "rental" income paid by the private player arguably offsetting costs of operations, which savings are then "passed back" to the taxpayer in the form of lower taxes required to maintain the facility.

It's all elephant guano, of course, because taxes are not rolled back, and new places are found where the "saved" taxes get spent, all coupled with the fact that virtually all governments run in deficit-spending mode.

Yes. The argument of reducing taxes in this state is a laugh at best. They are proposing an income tax in this state. Then there is the fact that there was a much better location selected, through an expensive study, and then they picked a bad location and expected rejoicing.

Hell the King Dome, was never paid off before it was destroyed.

Is there a way to bring a case against the government over their misuse of tax money and the giving of public property to limited private gain?

You may sue the government anytime you like... provided you get their permission, first (I sh*t you not)!

In short, the answer is no.

One of the few honest attorneys.
