$1 billion statewide deficit - that's what I heard. Will doing this help:
Nixing the welfare money going to the sports teams, who get their revenue from the fans, who spend rather a lot on tickets already and therefore don't need to be double-dipped BY tax benefits accorded to the teams?

Isn't the money supposed to help those who need bootstraps to pull up? Not already have bootstraps already; in this case platinum-coated ones as if I cobbled up a baseball team, I couldn't give them those types of salaries...
