Murray at Forefront of a Taxpayer Revolt?
Finally someone in the media has said what should have been said long ago. Jim Murray’s column of Nov. 6 was right on. Why should taxpayers help finance one nickel of a stadium so an owner with more money than God can go and pay some athlete huge amounts of money?
As Murray said, why not spend money on cancer research, higher education or a new center for government? I cannot understand how any sports owners could ask taxpayers to pay for a new state-of-the-art stadium, or how any American taxpayer would ever vote for such a thing.
