Thanks to all, great comments regarding the Kings and new sports arena. But there are some points that have to be thought out, like: 1. The Kings still owe Sacramento some 70 million dollars, do we just write that off for the privilege of keeping the Kings? 2. There is steadfast opposition, especially among Republicans, to raising taxes in any form and for any reason. Won’t taxes need to be raised to build a new sports arena?
