Should semipro/college players be paid, or allowed to sell their stuff? (NIL and Revenue Sharing)

Whatever it is you do for a living, imagine the POTUS and Congress want to set a national standard for what that job can pay and it’s less than you make now.

That’s how everyone should be looking at this imo. It’s fucking outrageous. Let’s get distracted by all the gum flapping about culture wars and ignore government setting a precedent like this.

What industry is next to spend enough with lobbyists to buy wage controls? People are going to start caring when it’s the one they work in.

This is not meant to be political. But how is limiting what one can earn not considered a form of socialism? If an adult is seen to be worth $5m/yr yet he's 19yo, how is it any different than a 50yo man who can be worth $5m/yr? Ive seen men in their 40s and 50s make mistakes with money just as I've seen men in their 20s make mistakes with money. And why is it anyone's business if they mess up the money that someone deemed worthy to pay them?

It sounds like a bunch of bitter middle aged and older men, who are envious that athletes at such young ages are able to earn as much if not more than their professional counterparts. Many are also envious that they couldn't earn similar amounts when they attended college
