Of course he does. All our celebrities do. As do all of our sports figures and executives.

What I was trying to find out is whether you think celebrity salaries ought to be capped?

Should the big movie companies be able to pay $20M for one of these nitwit movie stars to show up for a few months? Or do you think a million or so ought to be the limit? Kind of like putting limits on CEO pay.

The people most rewarded by society should be the ones that contribute the most to our civilization.

So would a person who provides hundreds of jobs to allow people to earn a decent living contribute more or less than a partisan comic?
