I hope that the NFL does not exemplify capitalism. With the support that NFL teams demand and get from the public in the form of discounted stadiums and other concessions, the capitalism that the NFL practices is crony capitalism.
Some of you have partially figured out why the NFL controversy is so important to the culture warriors on the left.
It’s about keeping the War on Women alive through the mid-terms, and then making it a major issue for the 2016 presidential election.
True it’s actually a non-issue; the NFL has a lower rate of criminal activitiy in every category than the general population. So it has to be hyped. The more it dominates the news cycle the less talk there is about the real issues: ISIS, Obama’s abyssmal ratings, ebola, open borders, Obamacare, etc., all of which favor Republicans.
The League is vulnerable — the leadership is weak in their responses to assaults by the left. It’ll get worse when the house floor speeches point out the NFL’s tax-exempt (non-profit) status.
And of course the War on Women issue will be the reason we ‘need’ a woman president, and it will be the reason Hildebeast can’t be held accountable during the campaign or afterwards (if she’s elected). Just as Obama can’t be criticized, let alone impeached, because he’s black.
