Isn't that a socialist philosophy? Yet, a lot of people agree with it. Why should a high income earner pay more for an apple than you do?<br /><br />Sure, celebrities get lots of free stuff but they pay in many other ways. Loss of privacy, for one. I wouldn't trade with any one of them.Gordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17346291121406806271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14245531.post-91752771531182387132009-12-14T18:05:22.097-05:002009-12-14T18:05:22.097-05:00@Abigail

Many celebrities get things free, as a form of publicity. So technically we tend to pay MORE than a star.Abigailhttp://ipickuppennies.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14245531.post-35574392274462180532009-12-14T14:23:10.996-05:002009-12-14T14:23:10.996-05:00It's funny just on its own before you think ab...It's funny just on its own before you think about it too much. Then you think about it and realize that having a sliding scale where someone who earns more pays more is more in line with Marx's principles and it's about 3 times MORE funny!Kizzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01957878512519527975noreply@blogger.com
