you shouldn't compare a profession to a job.
digging holes is not comparable to being a professional airline pilot.
i agree... everyone should work... i worked in a factory in college to help pay for flight training... however now that i fly the line i deserve more. i worked hard in college to become a professional aviator. the hole digger doesn't owe money in college loans and doesn't have the responsibility that we do. it doesn't mean that his job is any less, it is just different, thus should be the compensation.
