I don't know of any socialist/ or communist countries that can afford to have professional Sports like Football , baseball and basketball. They can't get paid enough to want to play , football players have a much shorter lifespan from wear and tear on their bodies- who would want to play football for 44k a year, thats the salary far left lib/ progressives want everyone to make.If Obama accomplishes what he said to %26quot;Fundamentally Change America%26quot; how long before pro-sports are history?I remember during a past Olympics that a world class Cuban volleyball player couldnt play %26quot;professionally%26quot; around the world and make a big salary. The comment the player made was, that he couldnt even afford to buy his mother a pair of eye glasses. Some healthcare plan eh? Some kinda opportunity to better yourself eh?If Obama accomplishes what he said to %26quot;Fundamentally Change America%26quot; how long before pro-sports are history?It wont be long before Obama has his hands in the control of Pro-Sports.If Obama accomplishes what he said to %26quot;Fundamentally Change America%26quot; how long before pro-sports are history?I truly wish people actually educate themselves to what socialism and communism really are, rather then taking the words of a pundit to heart.If Obama accomplishes what he said to %26quot;Fundamentally Change America%26quot; how long before pro-sports are history?If he succeeds, the cons won't even be able to pay you to troll anymore!If Obama accomplishes what he said to %26quot;Fundamentally Change America%26quot; how long before pro-sports are history?I agree, we should only have people in it for the money, like doctors, good point.If Obama accomplishes what he said to %26quot;Fundamentally Change America%26quot; how long before pro-sports are history?What I find ironic about the criticism of liberals in your question is in the perfect world of the 1950's that the Conservatives want to return us to , professional athletes were working class heroes that had to have regular jobs in the off season in order to make ends meet
Not including his World Series share Mickey Mantle never made more than 100K a year and the list price of a 1968 Corvette was about $ 5000.00

nations whose citizens are not engrossed in international sports industries are better off for it, consider the waste of maintaining sports palaces, and all the related resource-sucking industries
'professionals' by the hundreds of thousands, not even discussing managers and players yet
nations on the brink of breaking relations over the call of referees or player mistakes, players worshiped as deities , players bought and sold, payoffs and betting, corruption of every stripe
when I become emperor, I will give all sports teams to north korea or iran, they will be ruined
