This is an experiment.
Your participation is appreciated and may even make a difference.
There are people playing games and getting paid millions of dollars to do it, while
there are others struggling to survive!
These sports figures cry when their salary is not raised by millions while some of
us cry because we cannot put food on our tables for our children, we cannot take
them to the doctor because of the high cost of medical insurance, we must choose
what bills to pay and how late the mortgage will have to be in order to put a small
gift under the tree, if there is a tree.
Something is wrong with the people of this country when they choose to pay the high
costs of tickets to see these "games"! Naturally, it is the more affluent who can
afford to pay the prices, which keeps the prices high so us 'not so affluent people'
have to save for months to be able to take our kids to a ball game.
These sports figures are so used to making ridiculous amounts of money that they do
not even know what the life of a regular person with a moderate income is like.
Most of us will not make in a lifetime what they make in a year!
Can we blame the players when it is the consumer who is willing to dish out such
huge fees for watching them play?
What would happen if consumers stopped going to the games? It won't happen, but
maybe this list of people who are unhappy with the way things are will help to get
these salaries back to something a bit more reasonable. Come on! We all want to
able to bring our kids to the games!
Add your name by hitting forward, adding your name and address to the bottom and
passing it on to all of your contacts and others who may give a damn about this
matter.
When this petition reaches 1000 names, will the 1000th please forward it to the
federal trade commission and the Better Business Bureau for lack of better
organizations and we'll see if they can help us poor schmucks out or bring the
concern out for us?
Send it to:
www.ftc.gov and www.bbb.org
The radio stations are talking about the high salaries, let's see if anyone else
picks up the story!
THE FOLLOWING PEOPLE ARE FED UP WITH THE RIDICULOUS SALARIES PAID TO SPORTS FIGURES
AND WOULD LIKE THEM ADJUSTED SO OUR CHILDREN DON'T END UP PAYING $400.00 FOR A
TICKET TO SEE A BALL GAME!!
