Sport in Society, based at Northeastern University in Boston, says the enhanced government role could serve several important goals. It says the U.S. could encourage more youth participation, increase access for women and the handicapped, and promote healthier lifestyles.
According to the group’s proposal, made today, most countries already have a minister or secretary of sport. Sport in Society says the government could create a “Secretary of Sport and Culture,” establish a special adviser, or increase funding for existing programs."
Sports are such a capitalist success, such a show of individual attainment and promotion by merit, it makes sense the Statist administration wants to control it. The stated goals are not what the Statists desire, it's misdirection so they have time to gain control. Enough people buy into government control of everything, or are not paying attention because it doesn't affect them directly that Obama and his fellow Statists may be able to pull this off. They now control banks, insurance companies, auto companies, the press and Hollywood...which all used to be free of the government. I hadn't thought of it before, but sports is one of the last businesses to take control of.
