Maybe I'm missing your point, but locally you can earn 6 figures working as a farmer, policeman, carpenter, engineer and nurse which seems like a completely fair wage given the skills required, risks taken, and sacrifices made ... In many of these fields, you can take on greater risks and/or sacrifices and become self-employeed or start your own buisness and have the potential to earn "too much money" (ie. $250,000+ per year).
The people who complain about unfair outcomes are those who didn’t complete high-school, didn’t go onto college or a trade school, or studied something easy that they felt like studying with little concern of what skills they would develop; during and after school they have favoured a social life and bought consumer goods using debt so they have virtually no investments, and have been unwilling to put in the long hours required to be one of the few that would stand out in their current position. While they often have decent ideas on what businesses should exist they never even take the first step towards building their own business, and their battle cry is "I thought of (insert popular product) first"
