i used one example to prove a point, but okay, nitpick and ignore as always, my point is this; people get paid because someone thinks they're worth/deserve that much, not because of effort

Ok, so lets talk about normal people. How is money not effort to you and me?

of couse you have to put effort in to make money, thats not the point, in one job putting in lots of effort will earn you £65k a year, in another putting in not so much effort can earn you £650k, my point is this, how if we apply the logic of amout of effort equals amount of pay, is that fair? 

If the same effort can make one person 65K a year, and another 650K a year, why does anyone do the 65K a year job?

It takes a lot more effort to make 650K. That effort might not be while he is making it, but it;s effort spent to get that job.

so, you think i could be the worlds best footballer purely by putting in the effort?

shit, i did try my best, still i was not as good as Wayne Rooney, why damnit why, your logic fucked me over and did not even tell me why?

like others have said its not just effort, what about talent or ability?

also, surely the person who puts less effort in, under your system should have pay slashed automatically for not putting as much effort in anymore? 

When your logic fails you, you fall back to this. I can pick any rule, go to the extreme, and find something that defies it. Stop talking about the .001%, and let's talk about the other 99.99%.
