All right, let me put it a different way -- should the parking lot attendant at Fed Ex Field make as much as Santana Moss? Should their pay be more equal?

It is no different from the CEO of Toyota Motor Corporation and the auto worker -- one is infinitely more valuable than the other, and one can be easily replaced by another. Most people can weld two sheets of metal together. Not many can plan, tactically manage profits, organize budgets, hire effectively, and provide leadership in economically difficult times.

By the way dmek, you probably make more than me.
