One billionaire family is killing NASCAR. The France family owns the entire sport. They’re making hundreds of millions of dollars a year, while teams are struggling to break even. If nothing changes, teams will collectively lose more than $200M over the next five years.

Greed is not the desire for more, it's the desire for more at the expense of others.

If there isn't a billionaire owner squeezing their client base for every penny while simultaneously making the experience worse it isn't American.

They're literally children who don't want to share

Everything is fun and games, until you let the billionaires in 🙄

NASCAR can go under! They have taken our sport away from those that can not afford to go to races and can not afford to pat to watch it on TV. The France family needs to go!

I knew something was instantly wrong when Furniture Row, the best team in Nascar in 2017 and 18, suddenly announced they had to shut down immediately after 2018. I still miss them 😢

An agreement on revenue sharing and new leadership would solve this.

Another industry where the people doing the work and taking the risks make nothing while the laziest rake in all the profits.

Nascar has been a sh*tshow for over 20 years, Dale Jr kept them afloat for a while but since then it's been a downward spiral.

I learned all I need to know about the France family from Smokey Yunick.

Boycott, plain and simple. No cars show up, no revenue. It's called hardball for collective bargaining rights...

My favorite quote to describe the France family. I think it was from junior johnson but "Mr. France attended 4th grade 4 times to get his idiot license"

It's another Ticketmaster. That model needs to be decisively ruled as a monopoly.

You cannot become a billionaire without being a sociopath. 🤷🏽‍♂️
