To me there is something to be said about paying a guy millions of dollars a year because he can through a football through a donut from 60 yards away, pitch a baseball faster than 90MPH, or shoot hoops.
While the Doctor in Beverly Hills is making millions sucking fat out of rich people lard butts, the researcher working on cancer studies is making less than six digits.
It's a grand idea, I agree with it. Your salary should be based on your contribution to society and mankind in general, not how many people you can entertain or how fast you can run. Too bad it will never happen.
