A bill to force taxpayer-funded sports stadiums to double as homeless shelters is making its way through the Florida legislature this week. The bill, introduced by Republican state Sen. Michael Bennett of Florida, seeks the enforcement of a dormant 1988 law that said sports teams that accept public dollars to build their venues must shelter indigent people on off nights.

Interesting idea, but I would be interested in hearing more details, such as, how many homeless people does this help? After taking hundreds of millions of dollars from taxpayers, it better be a lot.
