I will never understand why public funds should pay for >50% of the funds for a privately owned sports clubs arena
This is one of the biggest taxpayer rip-offs in the country. Under the guise of the limited jobs it creates. Study after study proves what a rip-off it is. New York taxpayers are about to foot 1 billion so the Bills can keep coming up short of expectations.
Every single time a private company engages in a compromise with the supposed government it is a poor idea for the populace. A single entity has chosen to go against the majority. So ask yourself why you ever have a private corporation.
