End Stadium Tax

It's long past time to end the "stadium" tax for the Milwaukee Brewers stadium boondoggle that was completed 20 years ago. Here in the four-county Milwaukee Metro area we all continue to pay an additional .1% sales tax that basically just drops to the bottom line of rich folks. I'll gladly pay an additional 1% for public parks, public transportation, and, "property tax relief," but why are we all forced to continue to pay that additional penny on every $10 we spend for sports arenas? It was a scam when it was first implemented by Republican Tommy Thompson and others of his ilk 20 years ago. That it did not sunset in 2010 as originally promised by these corrupt politicians is a crime.
