I am happy to hear that Giselle, the ultimate super-model, earns $47 million per year…..she buys lots of real estate, pays lots of taxes and fuels lots of jobs. What I am not happy to hear is the automatic outrage one hears when a corporate titan earns half this…..maybe someone responsible for the livelihoods of thousands of employees, who studied for years to learn specific skills, who has worked spectacular hours to get into their position. If we are going to be outraged by those who earn lots of money, shouldn’t we keep it consistent?

To those who believe that corporate titans steal from the poor to pay their salaries, do you really believe the cost of a Giselle is not picked up by all of us in the cost of the goods she helps sell?
