The money taxpayers pay to use these facilities go towards the facility to run. Do you think a building is cost free once it's done construction?

Cost of doing business. But those that will suck up to billionaires or believe in trickle down will be hard to convince.

Exactly cost of business. That's why you need to pay to use the facilities.

yeah, I gotta pay someone to clean up the sidewalks daily. The city should be doing it but to keep attracting business I have to pay for it myself. That's an example of the cost of doing business. It's not rocket science.

a facility funded by taxpayers is at a reduced priced in comparison to what you would pay at a private facility

While I don't think those building should be taxpayer funded, saying they don't benefit the community is a flat out lie.
