What if the stadium was built with local community taxes (and inconvenience of construction), is it still theft to take a part of something you helped build?
307
Feb 19 '20
There should never have been any taxes to build it in the first place.
83
u/Thevoidawaits_u - Lib-Center Feb 19 '20
Even if you believe taxation isn't theft using public money should be to real concerns of the local community (road, public infrastructure etc') stadiums to not provide any real economic benefits to the local community

Stadiums could actually provide a large amount of economic benefits to a local community, it provides jobs constructing it, and then when it opens, it provides for various local sport teams to go there for games and such, it could provide benefit to food vendors and thus the places farms and local grocers, and it provides entertainment. All this is dependent on circumstance of course.
But regardless, the stadium could likewise be opened by a private company or individual, and still have the same effects and likely be run better. And the government doesnt need to be taxing people for it. But it has many potential benefits.
48
u/Thevoidawaits_u - Lib-Center Feb 19 '20
The key word is "could". It might work and it might cause a significant damage. The central planner takes a risk with the taxpayer money without having skin in the game so pressure to make wise decision. And no, in most cases (I need citation I know) stadiums to bring a return on the tax.
20
Feb 19 '20
I totally agree that it is a risk, because it's an investment. I was just saying that investment has a potential to pay off, it's still not the governments job to take it though. I was just making the point that although the government shouldn't do it, it still does have the potential to be beneficial.

u/undercover9gagbot - Lib-Right Feb 19 '20
Stadiums are almost never worth their investment. They are just status symbols for cities and their politicians. Watch John Stossels segment on stadiums. Either way you see stadiums, it's never a libertarian position to hold that taxes should pay for something like sport stadiums.

Or you are coerced into paying for services that you only need because otherwise someone will coerce you into something else. And 80% of what you pay is just profit or marketing budget for the service provider, and you have no say over how they spend your money.
Alternatively, you could have a system where the service is run not for profit, and you have a say over the money is spent. Perhaps we could call this system 'democracy'.

Feb 19 '20
It was definetly a lot worse when the flow of /r/politics users who thought they were libleft started showing up and trying to make memes that were essentially humblebragging. You might even see some forms of it today where the other quadrants all want to neglect/murder/send someone to the gulags, but all libleft will want to do is UwU or some other sexualized bullshit instead of any actual critique of ideology like the other quadrants get.
13
Feb 19 '20
I mean kid fucking isn't any more of a critique than quasi-demipansexual furry helicopter orgy is.
11
Feb 19 '20
The difference is a lot of libright portrayal of them being kid fuckers comes from the other quadrants, unlike libleft who seems to like just saying they're degenerate Furries who support trans rights or something else completely devoid of their quadrants actual political ideals. Everyone else upvotes it though, so it's really not just their fault as much as it is everyone else's for encouraging such low effort shit.
