No, no, Rick, you are confusing three different groups -- the people in the bleachers, the players, and the owners. The players don't know anything except that baseball has been bery good to them, that is fine. The people in the bleachers need to remain working class (well, fake working class). The fact that the working class at the moment is deluded by late onset Reaganism does not mean it will ever be thus. That the bosses will remain robber barons of course comes with the territory. You obviously missed your Socialism 101 classes.
