I appreciate the sentiment, and I completely agree with you. But, I am also a believer in capitalism. I am well aware that my likeness, as a baseball player at a small school, is far different than that of, say, Johnny Manziel. But, why should Manziel not be able to benefit from his likeness, just because I can't? That's the thrust of my argument, simplified.
