all humble european champions in 1983 and now stuck in the 2nd. it's a dog eat dog world capitalism at its finest. whereas in the united states it doesn't matter how bad your team plays bloom's they'll always be guaranteed a prime time spot. at leeds united they've been free. truth the fans have had to wait 16 years for a turn to the top but in u.s. force they look after their own in the u.s. the n.b.a. in the n.f.l. have a salary cap revenue sharing and even a draft system sounds almost like socialism. but hang on this is the champion of the free market economy surely they don't have socialist ideology is leading their sports or today let's check it out. first on the list us sports share their revenue. the dallas cowboys are the most valuable

franchise in the n.f.l. they regularly draw the biggest t.v. ratings and sell the most tickets but i haven't won a super bowl since 1996. in the n.b.a. the same can be said of the new york knicks who have a trip stretching back to 1973. he can get about. revenue because much of the. equally competing t.v. broadcast deals merchandise sales it's all thrown into one pot and shit evenly that's why a thing like the green bay packers which only has a population of about 100000 people can compete on a similar point into a standing as a thing like the new york jets bigger teams are effectively handing over cash to smaller markets in order to maintain an equal playing field often for their own detriment. in europe on the other hand clubs hold on to most of their cash.

the top performing clubs in europe don't give out any handouts and their success is typically rewarded with the largest share of broadcast revenue in spain realm of driven barcelona collectively receive about 24 percent of the league's t.v. money a club at the bottom and can receive as little as 3 percent. it's similar in the champions league a large chunk of the 2000000000 euro prize pool is dished out to clubs based on past performances that means newcomers receive far less cash so despite both teams making it to the quarterfinals bus alone or receive 32000000 euros more than atalanta. we. reached.

the top of the very elite with microscope the level of revenue sharing seen in the u.s. looks like to me a fantasy for their cross atlantic neighbors. in european football sharing revenue evenly is too much of a risk for the status quo that's largely down to the threat of relegation the n.f.l. and n.b.a. franchises they don't have to worry about dropping out of the big money club because their status is protected. then there's the salary cap in us sports. further leveling the playing field in the us is a limit on play a wager h. team salary budget is about 50 percent of their revenue share teams can under spend all over spend the denver broncos were handed one point $9000000.00 in fines to a series of violations in the 90 nineties and they want to super bowl. and while the n.b.a. system is a little more forgiving the golden state warriors for instance have been charged additional costs known as

a luxury tax the spending. limits are certainly punished if they try to flex their financial muscle in any. the section of american society that would be frowned upon to communism they'd scream meanwhile in european football they're following that kill or be killed capitalist mantra. in comparison to the us europe lets the market run wild. there are no mechanisms to control labor costs in european football top clubs can spend as much cash on players as they want p.s.g. spent 367000000 euros on neymar and back they could buy all that 70 private islands in the bahamas. cash buys you titles which in turn gets you more cash and the cycle continues that's one reason we're seeing more teams winning consecutive championships such as events in italy by and in germany scotland and do the most agro in croatia but periods of dominance have always existed according to steffen

schmidt only used the salary. level. very low which would satisfy. having we'll of. course as. you said it's a very low level well that would be. great point but this is and as the gap in europe widens basically any team in the n.f.l. or n.b.a. can realistically win the title and the even rewarded for their mediocrity it's what critics of socialism hate the most but it's happening right in front of their noses and it's working. and the final piece in the socialist puzzle. the labor pool is highly regulated in the n.f.l. and n.b.a. through their draft systems plays a distributed according to which franchise is in the greatest need.

to each according to needs from each according to. the. not really. america and that seems to be. the organizing quince core of the legally at least as far as we heard only that each. it needs to be. the worst teams are awarded the highest picks and successful teams are punished with lower picks. it's robin hood s take from the rich and give to the poor socialism one o one republican voters must be livid right well not exactly because the system allows for a much more even competition meaning the spectacle is overall more exciting but. instead of a draft system europe has a free for all. in european football there are absolutely no mechanisms in place to

control the flow of labor pains complacently spend whatever they want and even pointed to a pair of play has failed to really stop but. in recent years p.s.g. a manchester city have fought their way to the top thanks to middle east investment if you have money you can just buy your way to a few titles most of the champions league of course the big clubs extremely reluctant to share with us or to engage in any kind of equalization competition level because the way they insulate themselves from the threat of relegation is by the much richer we may be healed much for the majority of the royals. let's get real despite the socialist ideals within us sports the sum of its parts comes from marxist ideology the n.f.l. and n.b.a.

other richest leagues in the world its players some of the best paid every franchise is constantly getting richer. in 2008 stephen ross sport the miami dolphins for $1100000000.00 the franchise is now valued at twice that amount donald sterling bought the l.a. clippers for $12500000.00 in the 1980 s. he sold up in 2014 for a healthy $2000000000.00. this is capitalism on steroids you can't put lipstick on a pig the owners are purely driven by profits how else can they justify charging fans on average between $150.00 and $500.00 tickets in comparison european clubs a lucky to break even the current of pandemic has laid bare how precariously close to the edge many clubs in europe operate. in the last decade proud clubs have been forced into administration from glasgow rangers in 2012 to portsmouth twice in 2

years and others are sure to follow in light of the coronavirus but stephan says that simply the nature of your pain football's capitalist system. going bankrupt is not actually. it's not it's actually a consequence of the company says. this is where the differences between us sports and european football become clearer. just as u.s. sports are very unlikely to introduce anything like promotion and relegation it's also difficult to see european football introducing something like a salary cap the labor supply is simply too large whereas in american football basketball it's largely restricted to just one continent. the crimea league introduced the salary cap the domestic competition board improves plots their

international standing would plummet as the best players chase higher wages elsewhere months he says the salary cap and revenue sharing would only really be possible if the top teams broke away into a super league and constructed a closed shop system similar to the n.f.l. and n.b.a. . rules that would ensure they make money. not only because he needed me but they also get the benefit of. the profit because we probably should know. but it would also destroy a lot of the beauty which football fans love about the world game yes relegation is devastating but it's also true that any village team can rise from obscurity to the top of the pyramid is the definition of the american dream that's how lester could win the premier league and why major lyon were able to become

a force in denmark the american dream doesn't even exist in us for the n.b.a. in the n.f.l. up close shops and rich owners will even move into fire paint thousands of kilometers away from new cities if they think that will bring a bigger problem. i think all of the seattle supersonics. who moved to oklahoma city to become the sunda. of the oakland raiders who saw it was ripped apart when they prioritized glamour over heritage and moved to las vegas. both systems have their posteriors and their negatives but one thing is certain it's that us court certainly on socialists instead the rich owners from the n.b.a. and the n.f.l. have formed some sort of socialist collective adopting socialist ideals in order to maximize their own profit.
