Instead of expressing a more appropriate sentiment for members of the lower class--that it's shameful somebody who is highly skilled doesn't earn as much as an unskilled laborer--many people in this thread only express anger at "waste" or "undeserved" remuneration. It's one of the best illustrations of the "temporarily embarrassed millionaire" problem in America I've seen in a while. And make no mistake: almost everybody commenting in this thread is a member of the lower classes, even those of us pulling down six-figure salaries in the high $100k-$200k range. That some of us are relatively higher than others is immaterial to the immense wealth commanded by those in the class above ours. We have far more in common with the "lowly" janitor than these elites have with us.
