I simultaneously agree with you, but can't blame people for trying to get what they can from the system.
I mean, it seems reasonable to get the same as your peers for the same level of work (or in this case, popularity).
However, I think it's ridiculous that someone can get paid so much to play ball or tell jokes. Especially when we underfund fire departments, police stations, and schools.
To steal from Bill Maher, "we call them our heros, but pay them like chumps."
