text: And the top paid singers are making north of $100 million.  Yet they make closer to 20,000 times more than other singers in the industry and still no outrage.   When you cherry pick numbers you can get whatever results you want and this was clearly cherry picked data and drumming up emotional crap rather than anything more. What a persons job is 'worth' is exactly how much they and their employer agree to pay them for the job... nothing more and nothing less. And if they stay in the job contrary to the shouts of 'greed' or 'unworthiness' or idiocy claimed that is exactly what they are worth and they did indeed 'earn' every penny they were paid as determined by the ONLY PEOPLE WHO MATTER.  THE PERSON BEING PAID AND THE PERSON DOING THE PAYING.
