After just being built 15 years ago for a cost of $1.3 billion, AT&T stadium is approved for a $300 million renovation.
>>154380523meanwhile congress has approved to increase the federal minimum wage from $7.25/hr to $7.25/hr!
Jerry likes his money. Too bad Arlington is a shithole.
>taxpayer fundedtexans are such fucking embarrassing goycattle
>>154380675A high school kid cleaning toilets at Taco Bell doesn't generate hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue a year like that stadium does.
>>154380698lol...found the gay sports-hating nerd.
>>154380759If you watch niggers toss a ball around during your free time you are not human to met. heem enjoyer
>>154380698>no state income tax>what little taxes they do collect goes toward foobaw stadium lmao red states are a joke
>>154380680>Too bad Texas and the Cowboys are a shithole.ftfy
>>154380735High school kids who clean toilets at Texan Taco Bells are the ones buying Cowsois tickets and merch, if they cannot afford to buy either then the Jerrydome stops being a money printer.
>>154380675minimum wage jobs are NOT careers. They're for teenagers and entry level positions that even retards can advance in. No one on the left understands economics, science, or life. Stop trying to dictate your stupid terrible ideas to everyone. Voting was meant for smart people only. Not leftists. Because you're all a threat to democracy, as seen by the massive decline after "civil rights"
>>154381852Fuck you migger.
>>154381852Not everyone can have a career
>>154381923That's what disability is for. There is an entire race that's a drain on society that is bankrupting the country on it, which makes sense since they are legally retarded.
>>154380523Are NFL stadiums only used for NFL and random soccer matches? What a fucking waste of money, when NFL is only on for like 4 months of the year.
>>154380675yea just raise it like c*lifornia
>>154384343no, that's why new ones are all domes or have retractable roofs so that they can be used year round and in any weather
>>154380888yea?
>>154385186>PicWhy cant unitedststians understand proportion ?
>>154381852Those will be the only jobs left after ai takes over.
>>154380523Tax-funded, I assume?Owners have no reason to keep the stadium intact in the first place with such a system. A renovation increases value, and you don’t even have to pay for renovation! So why pay for repairments that delay renovation?And once a stadium is truly outdated in any form, you just let it rot and build a new and more profitable one with tax money as well
>>154380675Minimum wages should be abolished
>>154385192thats stupid because there are already too many venues for those events.
>>154386722cowboys generated over $2M in sales tax revenue just from ticket sales last year. i agree that the billionaires should have more pride and not take public money but these stadiums are economic power houses and its not that hard to make a case that justifies public spending.
>>1543869122 million in one year?So that means it would take 150 years to get the money to get enough for the 300 million renovation?
>>154386912>>154386947probably/hopefully billion
>>154386947thats just sales tax and only from tickets. theres also all the concessions and parking and merch and 2500 people employed on game day and all the economic activity that happens because how 'bout them cowboys. and then theres the opportunity cost of not giving public money and the team moving to somewhere that is giving public money. cowboys are a bad example but even they could move to Oklahama or Arkansas and not lose much of their fanbase
>>154386912I‘m not completely against using public money for these projects, but it’s just a fact that „your“ billionaire owners have it ridiculously comfy in this regard. Not only when it comes to stadiums, but also with the absence of pro/rel and so on. It’s crazy how profitable this stuff is and how much help they get For comparison, I think „my“ club - which is not owned by a company or an individual - had to renovate their stadium for the 2024 Euros. The club paid like 40% and had a sponsor help with the rest.
>>154387026i am against using public money on it, i just understand how the case is made. the robber barons of old built libraries and opera houses and hosptitals to placate the masses. our barons should at least be shamed into paying for their own factories.
>>154385199>undercut jobs by offering near-slave labor and no regulations>destroy your own infrastructure>this is winningTexas waived ALL corporate taxes to have companies move call centers to texas and what they got was millions of depressed californians and shit roads because they didn't even hire natives lmao.
>>154385186oh no, they lost 0.85% of fast food restaurant jobs, how is california ever gonna recover from this
>>154385199I'd move to a red state to not be homeless too. Doesn't mean I suddenly find it desirable. lmao
>>154387176>and shit roadsWhat were you saying anon
>>154385186Nigga they're completely automating those jobs away in the "Free State of Florida" just the same
>>154385199>Crusty boomers, disgusted with the idea of contributing to society's future, infesting your shithole that does everything it can to let them hoard their ill-gotten gains in retirement is a big flex.
>>154386947Don’t even try to rationalize the math. These things are just glorified vanity projects for city officials.
>>154382465Yeah well if you're not that race you're stuck doing minimum wage shit forever.
>>154380523that budget could feasibly be spent on just replacing the videoboards and every tv screen in the stadium. after 15 years they are generally due for a refreshwalls might get a lick of paint if there's any change
