[QUOTE="Double V, post: 2768937, member: 70819"] A minimum wage is a great example, actually. Minimum wages have done nothing but put DOWNWARD pressure on wages as employers have anchored their starting wages to the minimum wage for decades. As for the monopoly argument (which doesnt hold water, because neither the NCAA nor the NFL hold a monopoly on the labor market for kids trying to figure out what to do after HS), the fix is to get rid of the monopoly! I'm all for stopping the special treatment of the NFL and NCAA. There's some common ground there. But mone of that matters, because there are a MILLION other things to do with your life than play college football. I'll drop the liability laws argument because that's going down an irrelevant path, anyway. [/QUOTE]
Verification
