When Governor Dayton, by way of trying to pitch the state on spending hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to upgrade Ziggy Wilf’s real estate for him, referred to the new US Bank Stadium as “The Peoples Stadium”, many of us couldn’t miss the inevitable reference connecting it to anything else labeled “Peoples”, like the “Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea” or “peoples Liberation have army”.
When I made the association, it was pretty much just a reflex based on the usage of the term.
Of course, I knew it would eventually turn into the real thing – a publicly paid amenity that would favor our ruling class.
Was I right?
When it comes to parallels between the USSR and the Minnesota DFL, aren’t I always?
