Let me ask you this: How do you feel about the (truly) obscene amounts
that cor****ate types make (often at the same time as their companies are
going down the toilet - example: Ford Motors) ?

I have to say that Hollywood types at least can be said to actually work
for their money.

But regardless of what your answers to these questions are, the fact is
you can't really stake out a position on one without also saying
something about the other.
