Are sad, but irrelevant to the salary of an NHL player. We can hardly affect the lives of people in another government and economic system more than we could affect the lives of people on another planet. The economics of the west are really only relevant to the west. If other countries want to benefit from our economic system, all they need to do is join it. Change to a western-style free market and the lives of their poor will in a few short decades resemble the lives of our poor - who aren't that poor at all.
