I'm fair. I didn't say cap player's income and let the owners increase their wealth. The owners are already among the obscenely wealthy. Set up a structure where they are forced to create jobs with meaningful pay as opposed to pocketing the money.

Net worth over a billion? No no and no.

I'd even support the forced divestiture of excessive wealth accumulations. e.g. Walmart's main stockholders having to give up some stock to the disenfranchised and less fortunate.

We really need to rein in wealth disparity.

-Owners each employ 52 men with the lowest salary being 450k.
-a coaching staff
-training/medical staffs
-hundreds of front office staff
-cheerleaders
-police officers
-concession workers
-electricians
-plumbers


Not to mention indirect jobs like the networks that employ broadcast crews, which branches out as well. You also have building a new stadium somewhere every few years.
I'm sure the list of employees is actually 5x longer than what I threw together

Do you really think those millions of dollars are not creating jobs, albeit not directly? Even if it's in a bank or stock market, it is still being used for something.
