It's like saying the homeless have the choice of sleeping in this doorway, or that.

No it's not. You said yourself that your two guys were compensated equally. We're not talking about the homeless here.

I don't think you are even closing to seeing the picture I am painting.

No, I'm not. Because the picture you're painting shows a couple of guys doing their thing, making choices, being treated fairly, and doing just fine. If you want a different picture to emerge, try a different palette.

It showed how the record companies would pay small flat fees to singer/songwriters, and then gain all the profits if the song was a hit.

I wouldn't be surprised. What does that have to do with what we're discussing?

People make bad choices. People take advantage. People get cheated. People have good luck or bad luck. It happens. It will always happen. There are anomalies. What does that have to do with the inherent fairness of the system.
