I think you and the OP might be making the same point - that if policy dictates that tax breaks on mortgage interest deduction are capped at 750K then why is it acceptable to give members of professional sports oligopolies tax breaks for hundreds of millions of dollars?

I’m not a disagreeing with the idea that tax breaks for stadiums is a bad idea. I’m saying something like mortgage deductions are evidence of the same type of bad policy for many of the same reasons. The OP seems to indicate one is bad while the other is good.
