20. I can't believe most of these posts...

Seems to me like the OP simply questions the priorities our society puts on the value of different jobs.

How about we use a different scale, so the football fans won't get all clenched?

The CEO of CIGNA makes $5,883 an hour, but the aide who hustles the bedpans makes $7. The bedpans are more important to the actual patient.. and society in general.

The football program... sorry folks.... isn't as important as turning out educated, productive citizens.

It's a fucking game!
