[QUOTE="ramblinjacket, post: 677930, member: 229"] The reality is that the best solution is through the free market. And if the free market is in play then one must be prepared to likely see the current status quo and institutions either change significantly or fail. The situation is rigged by colleges essentially today no differently than taxi medallions are rigged in NY. Large bureaucratic boondoggles are put in place all with the supposed best intentions in mind(safety, children, compassion, amateurism, yada yada) that always lead to unintended consequences. Their only defense against innovation like Uber/Lyft is through further legislation that protects them. Get the rules out of the way and let the chips fall where they may. It likely means an end to college football as we know it but so be it. I bet there will still be forms of entertainment and a way for people to have a good time and those that provide the entertainment will be paid the value of the entertainment they provide. With the dollars they earn they will have the freedom to spend them as they see fit, such as on their family or education or whatever, just like the rest of us. No this won't eliminate poverty or mental illness but nothing will. The end result though will be a more just and net beneficial impact on society than any further contrived rule will deliver.
