I agree. Given how much benefit to society models/actors/etc. bring, compared to how much they get paid, it's kind of ridiculous. Meanwhile professors, while not living bad, don't have even a small fraction of the pay of the ones above, yet they are the ones that hcontribute the most to society.
Kinda fucked up and it's a problem with society. You are willing to buy shit that gets advertised for you, or spend the money for the DVD, etc. which gives those companies revenue which always ends up in the worthless person's pocket. Meanwhile I hear people bitch about education almost non-stop. It is beyond disgraceful and it is one of the best indicators of how fucked up society is (or really, I can make a very strong point about the fallacies of capitalism).

Well the problem with professors is... almost anyone can do it... and a lot of people DO want to do it.
For whatever reason it's actually really hard to "make" a celebrity that resonates.
For every college proffessor there is another guy who got a degree to be a proffessor and didn't get hired. Not because they weren't good enough really but just because of pure supply of people.
|
Well, I wouldn;t say that ANYONE can be a professor. At least not a good one. Just like ANYONE can be an actor, but that doesn't mean they won't suck.
|
Well not ANYONE, but it's a lot easier to be a good proffessor then it is a good actor. While if your a GREAT proffessor. Ironically you probably aren't teaching... you are researching.
|
And researching is also another great way of helping society. Meanwhile I can't think of a way that Avatar benefitted anything in any way, really. Also just because something is rarer, it doesn't make it worth anything more if it is useless.

Actualy something being rarer does make it more valuable, so long as it's something people wants.
That's just logical.
