[quote:Anonymous Coward 70663772:MV8zOTE0NjI4XzcwNjE1ODM5Xzk2MTJDMTZE] [quote:The Serpent's Maiden:MV8zOTE0NjI4XzcwNjE1NzE3XzQ4QzBDOUQ1] I understand that, but the balance is off there. They don't deserve what they get. Even they know they don't deserve what they get. Marketing or not, majority of that money should go to worthwhile causes to help the planet and humanity. I don't fucking see that happening... [/quote] Thinking that money can solve problems when there is no single problem that humanity faces as a result of a lack of money is part and parcel to the situation you're decrying. Good causes are better funded by willing and able hearts and hands asking for nothing in return if you ask me. [/quote]

Why do celebrities (musicians, actors, etc) make so much god damn money?
It's not like it's hard to do. Okay, playing an instrument not everyone can do that I get it. Or sing yeah, but do you think they deserve millions of dollars for doing it?
I don't...
Do you think they deserve to be worshiped as gods or some sort of heroes? Nope...I don't...
I just think the whole thing is fucked. I don't think they deserve that power. The balance is not right there.
I also think that perhaps people are starting to wake up to these facts. For instance, less people are going to the movies these days. Or going to concerts it seems.
What do you think?
Why do we worship these people like that?
Will the world ever wake up from the spell that has placed upon them?
