Thanks for that analysis but it's not about me. The point is benefits go to a very small minority, and that's not a sustainable way to govern.

- colinmhayes 5y ago> The point is benefits go to a very small minority 60% of Americans enjoy watching football according to https://www.statista.com/statistics/1108544/american-football-tv-audience/#:~:text=A%20January%202020%20survey%20showed,watching%20American%20Football%20on%20TV https://www.statista.com/statistics/1108544/american-footbal.... Even the 33% who strongly enjoy isn't a small minority. If a team decides to leave because the local city won't build them a stadium, it's very reasonable to think a majority of the local residents will be upset.
