Develop sports economy. It makes economic sense. What better a profession than being a sportsman ? You are paid to stay fit and in shape, you become popular, you live a healthy life, you get a lot of time to have fun, and earn good money, and be a good citizen. Sports economy in the USA is worth $1 trillion to economic output annually.
Interesting stats
Olympic Gold medals won by country since 1896 to 2007 overall
USA 896 USSR 395 Italy 182 France 184 Sweden 142 China 112 India 9
Amazingly these very countries also are developed and citizens are richer as compared to bottom countries in Olympics medal table.
