I guess Thune has decided that his bread is buttered with the pro-
stadium crowd so he's going back on his campaign promise to not
support public funding for a stadium. Let's remember this on election
day and move on. I hope he gets enough from selling out to make
it worth it.
Personally, I'd rather see the proceeds of a progressive tax go to
fund some schools, or not see some rip off of the rich, "because they
can afford it" not to happen at all.
<< Councilmember Thune puts the Mayor on notice that the 3% tax on
bars and restaurants won't fly, but then strikes out by proposing a
progressive downtown payroll tax as an alternative source of cash to
fund the stadium. >>
