Corporate welfare

What's up w/ the NHL, NFL, LGA, PGA having tax exempt status. These are all billion $ profit making organizations,

I believe the NHL as a league does not actually 'make money'.

They cover costs and distribute profits to the teams, which becomes taxable income. I believe only the leagues are tax-exempt, not the individual teams.

(I think).

The welfare system is corrupt on both ends of the spectrum.

And it is interesting how those sport enterprises distribute their tax benefits:
