🏅 Socialist Economics and College Sports

Hey there,

So last edition we talked about Rep. Michael Baumgartner’s college sports bill – you know, the one that would abolish the NCAA entirely. Well in that edition we focused primarily on the headliner of the Restore College Sports Act, destroying the NCAA, and discussed the advantages and disadvantages that could follow.

In today’s edition we want to go over some other parts of the bill though, which I personally think are way more interesting.

We’ll focus on the purpose of a college sports commissioner, as well as the economic structure that Baumgartner is proposing… which is sort of socialistic? I’m not trying to fear-monger or anything here – I’m objectively analyzing this thing, and it’s about as redistributionist as you can get. Before you start assuming anything though, let’s get into the weeds with it. Ready? Good.

College Sports Commissioner…?

Let’s get into this bill.

For starters, if the American Collegiate Sports Association were to replace the NCAA, we’d finally get a commissioner to oversee the entirety of college sports. That’s something we’ve been interested in for quite some time here, if you can’t tell by our obsession with guessing who that might be (you can read those stories here, here, and here).
