the new meadowlands stadium in new york and new jersey, cowboy stadium and lucas oil stadium in indianapolis. could they wind up seeing increased borrowing costs if there is a lockout? >> well, all of the bonds that are behind the stadium have reserves that are build built-in there that could carry them for up to a couple years. the problem is if it's an extended lockout, i think there could be a serious impact. it could result in them borrowing more, changing interest rates and having an impact. if it's a short-term lockout, it should be okay. >> tom: what about the construction of new stadiums? there is a new push for new stadiums, the minnesota vikings looking for a new stadium, even los angeles, without an nfl franchise is talking about an nfl stadium. what about the possibility of these new construction practicals and the revenue and local jobs that go along with them? >> well, i think what all of the people doing the planning are contemplating is a significant amount of equity that goes into these deals. expless less municipal money, less and less private financing that's available. th

i believe it will give momentum to similar efforts in ohio and indianapolis and we're hearing some othe same things going on now in tennessee and oklahoma. and public sector unions represent more than half of the nation's union members now and to really weaken them it could deal a blow to weakening the whole union movement. >> so a reents "usa today" gallup poll shows about two-thirds of america are opposed to eliminating collective bargaining rights. is this battle about money or politics? >> i think it's about both. you know, i think governor walker and governor kasich in ohio, governor daniels in indiana, they feel that by weakening or eliminating collective bargaining reports for public employers, for teachers, for sanitation workers, it will give them the flexibility to, you know, do what they want. they want to -- they figure they won't have to pay as much for cities and states won't have to pay as much for health coverage or be as generous on vacation days. might be able to privatize operations and save money that way. but the united nations, i think, also have a point that these
