Well , there ' s a reason people are willing to pay people high amounts for certain jobs , and not all are just delegating tasks . Whatever your angle is , realize that your talking about people who make a lot of money , and then you say they aren ' t worth the money they are making . There ' s a reason they make a lot of money . Is it fair ? Not really , but it would be stupid to think that they make high value salaries just because whoever authorized that salary said fuck it , what else will we do with the money ? And if economics was an easy class for you , then great ! Maybe you could take some higher level classes if you have a basic understanding and really understand why money is allocated the way it is and why people make the financial decisions they do . Or , you could just stick your head in the sand and pretend you have all the answers .
