@ProudSocialist Why is ANYONE platforming out of touch, out of country billionaires like O'Leary. Ick.

@PeteMundo @QuintonLucasKC @kcmotalkradio Let’s think of the service workers, waiting on people from non-tipping cultures, working for dimes at 3 a.m. That’s enough of a reason to leave hours as they are.

@QuintonLucasKC Excellent addition to my neighborhood. A better use of tax dollars than a stadium for a billionaire. ❤️

[Emily Allen @EmilyAllen]

@MayorLucasKC So jazzed about this.

@thematrixb0t It’s already 67 and has been for years.

@QuintonLucasKC What benefits are Jackson County and Kansas City taxpayers receiving in this new build? We can't fund our bus system but we can find $600 million, plus probably a tax abatement, for a billionaire's playground/office. Make it make sense.

[Emily Allen @EmilyAllen]

@AlexGold But we can't fund our public transit bus system. We CAN fund a billionaire to get a new playground.

@Patrickwebb Duh

@NoMoreBikeLanes @QuintonLucasKC It's not safe for pedestrians or bikers now with the streetcar. Why complain about public infrastructure when it benefits so many in the public? Better than spending money for sports stadiums.

[Emily Allen @EmilyAllen]

@QuintonLucasKC Yes! Is it open?

[Emily Allen @EmilyAllen]

@offsidetherez @QuintonLucasKC lol of course not. Billionaires don’t spend their own money. They spend the people’s.

@katieporterca Well, there's Bruce Ware. He's not either.

[Emily Allen @EmilyAllen]

@Rothmus lol of course he is psychopathic enough to murder people--most in the ruling class are.

@JDuncanKC Some city in some state must take a stand against funding a billionaire's lifestyle at taxpayer expense. Let it be KC.

@DarcyRober23154 @JazHays is name calling really necessary?

[Emily Allen @EmilyAllen]

@anttsinc The union building trades do this better, pay you while you learn and pay significantly more. Home Depot is NOT the way to go.

@KeruboSk That after five years, maybe even 20, that song comes on the radio and you’re back there, hugging the dad you lost at 14 and physical pain of loss slams into you.

@fox4kc Royals need public funds yet somehow the KC Current built a $140 million stadium with no public funds. Why can't a billionaire owner fund his own pet project?

[Emily Allen @EmilyAllen]

@QuintonLucasKC @Royals What benefits do taxpayers receive from giving our dollars to billionaire owners? No "new" taxes still means our taxes are going to fund a business. These stadium schemes have to stop.
