Mises.org “Proposal to end NHL lockout”
January 19th, 2005. Published under Business, Sports. No Comments.
I have really been enjoying reading the Mises.org site lately. Maybe I didn’t miss out on the family business/accounting genes after all…that’ll make my dad and grandfather pretty happy ;)
Today they posted an entry with a proposal to end the NHL lockout which I thought was an interesting take and is an option that I have yet to hear in all the endless discussion about the lockout. Living in Canada, hockey is one of the only things we talk about ;)
The crux of the suggestion? Dissolve the Players Union and let the owners/players determine the salary situation on an individual level. Will there be players who won’t be willing to take a pay cut? Probably. There will also be a large number of players who just want to get back to playing hockey and will be more than happy with the deal they can work out.
