Wow, aren't we a bit snide and condescending? It must really confuse the hell out of you when someone actually doesn't buy the brilliance you're selling.

Oh, and as for your argument - no sale. I'm not convinced that a 40-hour work week should provide a comfortable living no matter what your job is, and you failed to convince me otherwise. Wow, you worked harder than others and earned less, not as hard as others and earned more. Big deal. It happens. This idea that we can make life fair and equitable is absurd, and paying a burger flipper more than he's worth isn't the way to do it. People get second jobs all the time.

What would you suggest that we do - have the government evaluate each and every profession in each and every possible circumstance and then come to a decision as to how much someone should be paid?
