Are roads politics?

    What does that have to do with politics? None of those things you mention are any more political than sports. I don't care about you getting to work or receiving medical care any more than you care about my sports.

      Politicians pass bonds and laws which force people to allocate a portion of their tax revenues to sports stadiums. That should not happen. Taxes pay for roads - which is a critical infrastructure for all aspects of a modern society. This is an appropriate use of tax funds. Stadiums are not critical infrastructure, and should not be paid for with public money. I cannot fathom how this confuses you.
