Sports are more important to elite athletes because of its economic return on their investments.

Your opinion and mine about the value of sports versus education is irrelevant. The values are set by the world's population and their global economic decisions and a global sense of fairness to individuals and their rights to their names, reputation, etc.

How and whether educational institutions are taxed could change the economics. Do you have enough, time, energy and money to lobby for changes?
