They are moving for the corporate welfare and state and metro are paying them a subsidy to train workers with a trade. I hardly call assembly and shipping a trade. In addition they are being handed immediate benefits of a gift of $200 million and tax free status for 30 years. They can fold next year and the property is theirs. Since you are from Texas you know Bud Adams made a fool af our mayor in a deal and we taxpayers are helpless. I live about 2 miles from new stadium and it closed off my bridge to downtown and people in the neighborhood will not be able to go anywhere on game day. We have have parking for 7,000 and a stadium with 68,000 seats. Our beer and liquer laws were changed to accommodate the drunks. The Arena adjoins the First Baptist Church parking lot. The stadium crowd will prevent people attending the three churches in its close vicinity.

Meantime we have children in over 800 portable buildings poorly heated and no air conditioning in half them. Great city NOT!!! Just a used to be.
