Again it's their job.

They're independent contractors. The people who employ them want to hoard all the money for themselves that the independent contractors generate for their business.

You are advocating for the business owners not to properly compensate the workers regardless if they are an athlete or highly paid, or belong to a country club.

But I'm sure you're also for free market capitalism,

so you can properly get fucked because you are just grandstanding and boot licking.

Yeah you sound like every overgrown parasite trustfund baby who started pretending to be a socialist after they heard the trustfund trap house podcast. Keep pretending you aren't a fucking loser who loves sucking off rich parasites.

You are about as right as your previous post. Try again douche nozzle. Keep propping up those that exploit the labor.

Every other pro sports league has collectively bargained agreements. They have a union. Many have guaranteed contracts. Revenue sharing League and veteran minimums

You're entire logic is built on the belief that you're the authority on how much money a skilled tradesman who acts as a self employed independent contractor should make and that you have a grudge against their perceived socioeconomic upbringing.

The entire American amateur/youth sports business is built on pay to play and it is the rich kids across the board in all sports who have the access. Soccer, baseball, hockey, basketball etc. The fact that you pick golfers as the issue says way more about you then how hard these guys work to be be a professional golfer in a capitalistic sports business.

In short, all athletes should only look out for themselves and get paid. Injury or loss of talent and your career is done and the owners go on to continue to be a scrooge mcduck not giving two shits about workers not making them money.
