Do you think its time for the Obama administration to cut the pay down on pro sports.?

[I love the wwe divas]

Once Obama done telling the people how much they can make is the pro sports next.

I am not a fan of government limiting pay period. There are determining factors related to how people are paid which is best left to the private sector to decide. However, I would like to see an end to the use of tax payer funds to build sports venues. If they can afford to pay exorbitant salaries to players then they can certainly afford to build their own arenas and stadiums to house them.

Edit: And just for the "no because they didn't receive a bailout" crowd. Exactly how do you define tax payer money used to build these stadiums when the cities do not end owning the venue? Sounds an awful lot like a bailout to me, but really it is more like a handout since these are not loans but rather outright gifts.

Nah, a lot of them support him. Just like how he is not touching the obscene prices people pay movie actors.

When they come begging for bailouts, sure.

Cutting the pay down should start with Hollywood stars and entertainers. Getting millions for acting in a picture is silly.

No, I only wish he could rid the world of republicans.
