Well the mlb is capitalist as fuck , but the draft is not . Well MLB has a domestic draft with spending caps , limitations on spending for certain international free agents , and team control that keeps young stars paid well below market price for the first ~ 6 years of their career . Teams also have to pay penalties i . e . a luxury tax if their payroll is above a certain level . But there ' s no hard salary cap so it ' s more capitalist than the NBA and NFL . <| sep |> You ' d have to workout where the money would come from . The taxpayers . Again , I ' m not against CBC having ads . I ' m against them being entirely ad supported , and I ' m against them trying to turn a profit , but there ' s nothing wrong with having simple google ads on CBC . ca or car commercials in between the Rick Mercer Report . In 2006 CBC spent more than all of its revenue , including government funding . I don ' t have a problem with this . I don ' t think a public entity should be required to make a profit . Then what ' s the point of having the public entity at all ? You may as well privatize it if you want it to be run like a business . The whole reason we formed the CBC was so we could have something better than the CNN and NBC types out there .
