It is sad so many people make the Kardashians wealthy, however they are large employers as well. They pay taxes, consume tons of material and help make the system work. How would your system work Tejek? Would they all be paid by the government? Would the government own everything?

There are different concepts of value, the most important of which is economic value, the price at which a willing buyer and a willing seller will agree it an exchange transaction. That is true value. There are other ideas of value but they have little or no significance. The concept of intrinsic value has some meaning, but it is of little economic consequence. Thus, Kim kardashian is, in fact, far more valuable than you or me.
