New Gayland

"Holy cow, is this gonna be great!" hollers BUBL President and sports nut Freddy Spirit, wearing a fashionable giant foam finger on his right hand. "Baseball is just what New Gayland needs right now! Think about it: soda, popcorn, hot dogs... oh, and I'm sure the economy will benefit somehow, too! All we need is the government funding to build stadiums and teams, and we'll be on every TV and in every city in the country!"
[Accept]
"You're going to spend the taxpayer's money on WHAT?" counters Minister of Finance Zeke Jefferson, from a newly furnished office. "I mean, I love playing a good game of baseball every now and then, but does the government really need to go around supporting this? The only people that are going to benefit are a bunch of fat-cat burger vendors and bored hicks with nothing better to do on Sunday afternoon! We need to stop spending so much money on these ridiculous games and get back to what's really important: running the business of the country."
[Accept]
I'm trying to improve my economy, and it seems like both these options might help. Which would be best? I've dismissed this issue every previous time it came up, so I don't know what it does, and every time I choose an option (on another issue) that seems like it might help, my economy collapses.
That's why I'm asking all you wonderful people. TIA (ATS).
(I found a few threads about this issue, but they were all about making it a different sport.)
