Poll: Overwhelming number oppose tax support for Saints

Many businesses get tax breaks and such which I would consider a type of subsidy. I don't know of any getting direct payments from the state, but I also don't know of many that bring as much outside money into the state or outside money into New Orleans as do the Saints.

NOTE: I am against the way Benson is handling things and I don't particularly care for the amount we are paying especially in light of his unwillingness to oopen his books. I do believe that even after these payments are made the state is making some money or New Orleans is making some money. I just don't want my statements criticizing this poll to undermine my original premise on the subject.
