How Title IX Is Harming US Olympic And International Sports Teams

Bill Kuhl submitted this article from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch about Title IX, and how it's affecting US competitiveness in olympic and international sports. It turns out that the decimation of less popular men's sports (such as gymnastics) to meet the quota system of Title IX (whether it was meant this way or not, that's how it's being implemented) is providing fewer and fewer qualified candidates for US men's teams. Meanwhile, other countries that haven't passed such draconian measures are at a significant advantage against the US. I guess "nice guys finish last" rings true here, eh?
