The long arm of corporate tax welfare has stretched from Kansas City to St. Joseph.
Recently- the State of Missouri and other governmental entities gave the K.C. Chiefs Football Club Inc. millions of dollars to move their summer "training camp" from River Falls-WI to St. Joseph.
According to The St. Joseph NEWS-PRESS- city officials are considering a tax increase on local lodging to "replenish coffers emptied to pay for the Chiefs training camp" says the NEWS-PRESS story.
How many more scarce tax dollars in this horrible "recession (Depression)" are going to be spent on professional sports corporations?
