(1,415 posts)so I'm a Republican? Nice. You don't even fucking know me, but you feel the need to call me something I'm not just because I disagree with you slightly.
My point is this: People who help people should be rewarded more than those who don't. Teachers help people directly. Walmart greeters really don't do much to contribute to society at large (an occasional hug doesn't feed or educate children, or care for the elderly). CNAs help people directly. Athletes don't (unless they spend their money on charity). One group should be paid more than the other.
In my eyes, hedge fund managers and Walmart greeters belong in the same category as far as actually helping people. But you don't care what I think, because I must be a Republican because I think people who don't help others and don't make an effort to learn skills to help them do so shouldn't get as much as people who do.
