Dear Patricia, I see a very silly attempt to compare the two. The stadium was build using public funds and was owned and built by the local government. One can argue if those who sold the land were forced to. Should they have been forced to. If they were I suspect if they were the were compensated fairly. But the city did not own the enterprise that leased the stadium. The city did not run enterprise.

In the stadium case It seem to me that it is an acceptable practice for Governments to provide money or facility incentives to lure capitalists to invest their money and time in a particular location as over time the taxes generated directly and indirectly pay for the investment.

You are advocating the the state nationalize an enterprise and take the land. The business of government is not going into business.
Again, One can loosely make the case that a government can fund a facility that is going to be used or leased for use for some enterprise. This is a far cry from taking over a private enterprise.

So to me your calling Smart Business Man Mr Bush's use of free speech to create a valuable profitable enterprise using voter approved funding to create a facility for the public good as communistic antics just shows you don't have a clue about what communism is and why you have a mind meld with communist philosophy.

An aside comparing the vacant liberal mind leadship council.
mr. bill , SOre, LOserman, and shrillary never had any experience in running a private enterpise. Their work experience is confined to flipping hamburgers and investing in bogus land deals. They all have Rich extensive training as under bosses in the democrat party mafia though.
