Well Im sure they get paid to do the signings, radio shows and live performances. If they dont get paid for something they do, then I would agree with you that they need to have a better deal.

They do. My main point was that Japanese voice actors/actresses aren't paid just for voice acting, but a conglomorate of doing multiple things.

Yeah but that is Japan, it is the country where an animator who works 6 days a week and +10 hours a day gets a salary that is hardly more than 800$ a month.  It is very heart breaking to watch Shirobako (that is about the life of people working in the anime business). When you see those characters have parents who send them vegetables and they buy 1$ micro wave dishes not because they want to but because they can't afford more;...Well that is a total different discussion.
