Buses don't require a second driver, if they did I would expect them to be compensated the same.
Comparing pilots to bus drivers is apples to oranges, but in no way should a pilot carrying the same amount of passengers be paid less than a bus driver.
This doesn't make sense. How much someone is paid isn't based on persons expectations. If its easier to make money hauling people around slowly in buses than really fast in 50 seat jets, the market is going to pay bus drivers more.
