I don't really understand why we consider the CEO of exxon evil for making $20 million a year, yet we admire will smith and tom cruise for making $50 million a film. I wonder if hollywood would be so liberal if we demonized them and went after their money. hmmmmmmmmmm.

ha just one of many hypocisies in the liberal world.

Perhaps because they're not a corporation that contributes to the destruction of the environment? Just a guess of course
People don't have to go to the movies. I don't, although sometimes I rent a movie. However, I need gas to get to work. Many people need home heating fuel to survive in the winter.

. Obama's tax plan IS
going after these people.
If they make over $250,000 a year net income, they will pay more taxes.
By the way, I don't admire either of these gentlemen. However, I do enjoy their movies (on TV or DVD)
Comparing an individual actor with the CEO of a corporation doesn't make sense. Tom Cruise has no obligation to his stockholders or the American people. He doesn't drill for oil and hurt the environment. Anyway, many of Hollywood's actors are very generous. Will Smith & Tom Cruise have been honored for their charitable projects. Brad Pitt donated about $6 million of his own money to help rebuild New Orleans.
The generalizations on this board are getting absolutely ridiculous. I'm a liberal who thinks Hollywood is VASTLY overpaid, and many people will agree with me. It doesn't matter if you're liberal or conservative for many of the issues on this board,

and a bad guess at that. if we don't like oil, then why use it? we obviously like that destruction. oh, and if you think that hollywood has never contributed to the destruction of the environment, you have got to be kidding. exxon provides us with a service, and hollywood provides us with perez hilton.

no, the question was, why do we demonize exxon, and praise liberal hollywood. exxon already pays enough in taxes to fund the failed department of education, yet it's never enough for the ignorant masses of sheep.

Sorry, but NOBODY is worth a MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR FOR ANYTHING!! I dont care if its the President of the United States, even 'he' doesnt make that much, and he 'supposively' makes all the right decisions for our Country.
I think its asnine for anyone to make that type of money, when we have people who have to eat out of trash cans, and dumpsters! No, I guess its why I refuse to go to movies and see some panty-waiste actor, (who dont even do thier own stunts...talk about wimps), get googled at by women and teenagers and thiink that they 'are' someone because they make so outrageous amount of money, that thier opinion actually means something when they 'speak'...YEAAAA RRIIIIIIGHT! GIMEE A BREAK!
May the LORD Bless each of you.
I wish you well...
