9. why do some think it's criminal for actors/athletes to make a lot of money
if a movie makes shitloads of money, who should be the ones taking a bigger cut the actors who drew the people to the theater or the producer who never got off his ass and usually only invested other people's money in the venture to begin with?

if a sports team draws millions of fans who pay top dollar for tickets, tee shirts..... why shouldnt the players make the money instead of the suit sitting a luxury seat?

...

too continue,
Bootlegging? I have no problem with bootleggers, rum rummers and the such (both of my grand fathers made a little by running shine in the Carolinas)

PORN??? we all get paid for our time and out efforts, porn actors and actresses put out a product that rakes in billions, Once again who should make the money, the suits or the person on their knees?

Labor creates all wealth.
