[QUOTE="leatherneckjacket, post: 949566, member: 3849"] Your exact words were that capitalism, with a few winners and a lot of losers, results in lack of production in the long run, ergo: capitalism is bad and communism is good. History shows that your premise on capitalism's effect on production is not only blatantly false, but the complete opposite of the truth. I have been to several communist countries and seen the lack of production that communism derives when there are no winners and losers. Applying it to sports makes it equally incorrect. The desire to enrich oneself, to maximize one's individual benefit, even if that is delayed in the immediate term, is what drives individuals to perform at their very best. Communal workforces are the least productive and the least innovative. Pay disparity (few winners and lots of losers) is not the reason for lack of production for the losers (lower paid athletes). It is almost always the lack of opportunity to succeed or poor management. Everything you said is demonstrably false. [/QUOTE]
