I have always been a sports fan, but I really dislike the giant subsidies given to billionaires, to the point where it just feels like a giant con.

Not only is everything over priced, but there's a vast array of tax breaks and hidden subsidies that the working class pays for.

Do you feel the same way about the music and movie industries?

[ojbyrne]

A. I don't think that whatever tax breaks those industries get, that they compare in scope to the obscenity that is the National Football League.

B. I tend not to go to "tent pole" movies (well, occasionally) nor really consume a lot of blockbuster type music. Those would likely be the largest consumers of subsidies, or at least I'd guess that.

C. Music and movies occasionally intersect with "art" which I mostly support some subsidy of.

You did ask a good, thought provoking question. But as I said, I do like sports, and do use some of my discretionary spending to attend games. I don't support the massive subsidies that professional sports in the US gets.
