MN Billionaires say: "For $600 million, we get to keep 130 Vikings jobs in MN!"

12. "Mind if I use your explanation..."

Feel free to use any or all...

I hope you have better luck than I did. I have tried posting similar rants to local MN sports blogs, chat-rooms and have even written similar opinions to the local papers... My posts are always scrubbed & my letters are never printed.

What does it say about a society when a State Government can go into a "special session" in order to try, yet again, to ram through a massive "big government handout" aimed at giving hundreds of millions of dollars to a billionaire who does not "need" but rather "wants" the money to build yet another stadium that he does not "need" but merely "wants"? What does it say about the State legislature's priorities, when it is more than willing to work overtime in order to "find" the money to upgrade an entertainment complex, yet either unwilling, or unable to give a similar effort to address schools, hospitals, roads... ... and her bridges are literally falling into the river?

I have volumes more on this subject, but what I posted was, I thought, enough to make my point to the general DU audience...
