You see like a smart dude. Why would you think the players get paid too much when someone is cutting them a check. They bring in money you can't comprehend. Transportation, food vendors, alcohol vendors, fuel, advertising, jerseys, game tickets, t.v. deals, whole television shows dedicated to them, hotels, etc. They bring the areas they play in MASSIVE amounts of revenue. In reality a lot of then are under paid severely.



Underpaid? They play real life video games. If the companies and corporations that own all that other stuff weren't hoarding hella dollars then it wouldn't even matter like it does now.

I think instead we should talk about how we should distribute the money we have already(tax payer speaking) and what the government needs to stop spending it on

Yes. Underpaid. When you make someone let's say 500mil a season but get broken off 15 mil. That's severely underpaid. Especially since your the only reason the money is made in the first place.

cuz shyt happens? you want to give your kids some?

just going off that number you the average american already spends close to that In life and their is a huge need to actually pay workers more and raise minimum wage and help out the poor and minorities who have been systematically damaged

you think the average american lives a well off life when a huge percentage are below the poverty line?

like I said it sounds cool on paper and could have maybe been worked out in the founding of the country but right now there is just too much going on to start capping everyone's entire wealth

now if you said taxing the richest to distribute to poor and urban areas with school hospitals and good teachers and improving infrastructure id agree



Breh what you seem to not be looking at here is, all of that hoarded money would be actually in the economy. You want to give your kids some incase something happen? A few hundred thou ain't enough? :dahell: what does a kid need(key word) to buy that cost so much? You keep skipping out the part that you could start working again once you go under the cap.

I don't think Athletes should be getting paid as much as they do tho. Football is a grueling sport, so their pay is somewhat justified. But 16-17 mil a year to play basketball/baseball :dahell:
as oppose to 200 million a year to 'own' them :ehh:

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
I know you're trolling with this bullshyt so i'mma play along...

Why the arbitrary number, 3 million?

So you are not only advocating a wages cap but also forced retirement for ppl who hit the cap as well as abolishing anything that costs more than 3 million to purchase?

And if they don't manage their money right they are forced to start over finding a new job?


:mjlol:

whats the point exactly?
wait a minute... i didn't even realize it'd just be a CAP... this is even worse :pachaha:



so absolutely nothing in life changes... EXCEPT once you make 3 million, then you're finished


so every year another mass group of ceo's, upper management, owners, actors, entertainers, bankers, etc etc etc..... they all just quit their job every year and walk into the sunset

then the other people who don't make shyt... well nothing changes for them... they are capped at 3 million... but never not once have they ever even made 3 million to......................



wait a damn minute.... how you just gonna make 3 million?? you living while you making it right??? it's not a lump sum.... so the point i made 3 million, even if i don't have shyt to show for it, i gotta quit my job :what:

and if i never make 3 million total, i'm in the same boat as before :what:

and if it takes me 65 years to reach the 3 million, and again, i still don't have any lump sum.. so i might have made 3 million and spent 2.9 million on living to be 65.... i'm still fukked and gotta quit and can't work... or just retire like i'd normally do














when i was a kid we had a assignment to write the president... i wrote, being in 2nd grade, "why don't we just print more money.. nobody would know there was more money around, and everyone would be rich"


that plan was literally more thought out than this.... i could go on with variables like 500 times of how this makes zero sense :sas2:


but you're heart is in the right place :salute:

it's called SOCIALISM

And here we go with the human nature arguments and the unscientific, unsophisticated social "analyses" and defenses of capitalism. :camby:

I disagree with the idea of a "wealth cap," if you will - in the end, it solves none of society's problems.

nikkas have gone broke off 100 million plus

trust me, there's always a reason to have more money

i can't live on 2 coasts and 2 continents with no 3 million dollars... i'd have to go to work again... and i worked hard to not have to do that and live how i want to.. this is america.. not russia.. i mean shyt, you know how much the gas costs to fly this g5 from ny to cali 2 times a week - says every rich person ever



Oh word? How much do plane tickets cost? 250k? :mjlol: "nikkaz" gone broke off 100 million because they buy 50 million dollar mansions and new cars every month. All those things are not neccesary to live comfortable or to travel the world if you wanted. with my idea 50 million would be going into more hands period, which would help alot of people.

savings isn't hoarding dude what
how are you leaving a few thou when the average doesn't make 3 mil and the avg person isn't leaving their child 100k when they except maybe in life insurance but not in personal valuable assests because you think saving is hoarding

and what you mean in the economy
if your money ain't in the bank you trusting something even worse to watch it and spend it accordingly. the government. you think they spend tax payer money on dumb shyt now imagine the field day they'll have when they start acquiring billions from people who have reached their cap

and forcing someone to stop working until they are broke so they can make money again is just not a good plan
this does not fix any of the scams and the disasters that can happen to anybody
people need security

I had this thought too...but at the same time I feel like if you worked for your money you deserve to have it :manny:

I think athletes earned their money. It takes a lot of skill and dedication to make it to that level.

Why do you need more than 3 mil? It doesn't mean things would abolished exactly, just things like 3 million dollar paintings would no longer be that much in price. Forced retirement would encourage growth and connection on a humanity level of thinking/living, while not eliminating peoples desire to do great things like invent a new type of engine for cars that's better suited for clean fuel.

you ever heard of inflation??

if everyone in the country made 3 million, then why in the hell wouldn't the price of products and services, raise up as well?? when mcdonalds workers made $7 last week and in 2040 they make 3 million dollars... how much you think those big macs gonna cost?

the world is how the world is, because of greed.. it's human nature.... if we all got 3 million... trust me, someone is gonna want 4... if someone spends theirs.. they gonna dream up ways to take your 3 before going back to work at the age of 55



Why would they raise up? Who is going to raise those prices and what would be the point? All that big boss man stuff would be deaded because you would only be able to make so much.

People can inflate prices now because they can hoard till they die and longer if they have children to hand the torch to. You can inflate a ballon with carbon monoxide but it won't float, it's a bunch of hot air.
