How would lowering the salary cap help with retaining profits didn't thirteen clubs make a loss and then the others if you make more money have to give it to the s**t clubs anyway

I'm comparing it to overseas sports where some teams were terrible for literally decades and the owners just paid the bare minimum, let any talented free agent walk and ended up running at a profit because the franchise ran on the smell of an oily tag and people would still come along to watch the stars on the away team.
The LA Clippers ran like this for years and closer to home, people might be surprised that before being taken over, Melbourne Heart was one of very few A-League clubs to not run at a loss.
