Chuck, outsource yourself. this is just coming back to bite you in the arse. when you legislate higher costs to business they find cheaper ways to do things.do you think workers in Taiwan get 3 months paid family leave?

Heck UpChuck, tell the NBA to just raise ticket prices like you raise taxes. Then the “people” can share their wealth with the Perry, Wyoming working men & women.

But what happens if the “people” stop buying tickets to the games because they’ve become too expensive, and they can’t afford them? That’s right UpChuck, just pass a law that requires the people to buy NBA tickets. And if the “people” refuse to buy tickets…they will be fined or put in jail….and maybe forced to watch the games on the 60″ plasma TV’s in prison.

Careful though, if NBA sales drop too low, the NBA may just start outsourcing the players…look for a lot of new, unknown (foreign) names on the player rosters.
