So what are "the people" paying for when they give money to a rich dude for a sports ball situation? The brand and prestige of a sports ball team. It's the hallmark of a big city to be able to do that. There is a pretty terrible ROI on public dollars into private enterprise, period. But governments continue to do it for the image associated with it. Since I live outside of CharMeck, it doesn't affect me much. I love my Panthers. They have been part of my life since they announced the team in the early 90s. My parent's names are on one of those Panther statues. Some of my best memories with my family and friends come from that stadium. But on the flip side, could CMS use the $650 million? What about public housing? Streets? Parks & Rec? There are a lot of other places that $650 million could go. But in our modern society, I bet that after much hemming and hawing, the money will come. Areas of the budget will suffer. Some taxes will increase, but that's how things work in our society. Charlotte is not willing to lose the Panthers. -
