Billionaire NFL owners, whose activities are tax exempt ( the third party) oblige taxpayers (fifth party) to pay wealthy "law enforcement" functionaries (fourth party) to interrupt sales of junk between 2nd and 1st party traders (actual buyers and sellers.)
Although this effort is astronomically expensive, there is zero impact from "knock-offs" on the economy, because none of the people buying knock-off products would have ever paid for "official" NFL products. This is business billionaires simply cannot be bothered with, but the rest of us nonetheless must foot the bill for fun-time busy work and pension-gaming by "law-enforcement."
If tax-exempt billionaires care about this, why don't they pay for it?
This is why the USA is fast becoming a third world country.

The operation began in June.
