4. It's the free market at work.

He will only work for those that he feels will pay him what he's worth.

Manny didn't create the hyper-inflated wages that professional entertainers (and lets be truthful here, sports stars and movie stars are in the same business) can earn, he is just profiting from them.

But I don't have to buy a ticket to watch, or patronize the advertiser that is subsidizing his salary.
