Gee, they don't pay NFL players enough.

Terry Bradshaw sold used cars for a season or two. The Dolphins first QB was a substitute teacher.

Francis recently finished his third semester studying for a master's degree in international security and economic policy, and he sounds like an economist talking about Uber's impact on the market.

"Everywhere Uber is, it thrives," he said. "The resistance comes from taxi drivers who don't want to get beat out, because they know they can't compete. Which is funny to me, because in no other aspect of American culture are you allowed to stifle capitalism."

Well he doesn’t sound like an economist that is terribly knowledgeable about the US economy.

I can name quite a few professions in our economy where capitalism is similarly stifled.

Barbers, nail salons, dental hygienist, legal aids.

The list could go on and on. All of these people are restricted in their economic opportunities by needless regulations.

I hear their ads on local radio to become a driver and have considered it.

A.J. Francis is still bouncing around the NFL. Seven teams so far and not much playing time to show for it.

Hopefully he is continuing to bring in some dollars from driving Uber.
