Discussion on Athlete Salaries and Society
There is no job worth 2 000 000 a year.
That's why they pay athletes these fantastic salaries.
I was listening to the radio the other day. They just contracted to pay one player
on one team 6 000 000 a year. Can you believe this? And why is that?
It's the Roman circus.
What does the emperor do when the people become restive and when the people
are asking questions and when the people don't like the policies of the emperor?
He sends them to the circus. He creates a circus. He builds a giant coliseum.
And he begins to throw the Christians to the lions.
He has great chariot races and football games and basketball games all to
keep the idiots
preoccupied with things that don't mean anything in the scheme of the entire world
so that they don't have the time to learn what the truth is so they don't ever
get smart enough to learn how they're being manipulated
so they don't ever question the emperor.
That's why they pay a player on a football team or a baseball team
1 000 000 or 2 000 000 or 3 000 000 a year.
It is the Roman circus.
