How are the games, stadiums, tv broadcasts, video games, advertisements, thousands of cleanings, millions of products, etc. all developed, organized & produced?

It’s not by the footballers. https://twitter.com/syhgzn/status/1254768123560910848
The question was about entertainers (specially footballers in the tweet) make so much money.

This question is relevant to all high-end celebrities, from music to sports to film to social media influencers.

They don’t generate that much value in profit on their own.
You need a workforce to produce millions in revenue. If people could do it on their own, they wouldn’t hire out, because it would save them labor costs.

It’s why so many fashion businesses depend on overseas sweatshops where people are paid below-poverty wages.
Folks need to understand how difficult it is to generate millions in revenue. By a certain point, it is physically impossible to work that much & that hard.

It’s why the modern capitalist system was built upon the foundations of enslaved labor from imperialism & colonialism.
Western countries became industrial powerhouses because they produced centuries of profits on free *enslaved* labor. They just had to pay the costs of bare minimum living to keep what they called “labor capital” running.

Humans who were considered less-than, like livestock.
And this system of producing massive wealth through exploited labor has continued throughout the world. It’s just given a better public relations image today under the guise of “universal human rights” & “fair wages,” which aren’t even enforced.

That’s how people become rich.
You cannot make hundreds of millions & billions through one person’s ideas or work. There’s quite literally no idea or force on Earth that singularly generates that much in value.

The value is *constructed* by the workforce behind it.

And it always belongs to the workers.
