Maybe actors are paid way too much for their job? Robert Downey is being paid $200 million for Infinity War.

Not that I don’t care, because I do, but is a few lost hundreds of thousands of dollars lost over the course of a multi-millionaire A-list actress’ career really the pay disparity we should be addressing in America?
Do the women of SAG have any leverage to just tell Hollywood to go fuck itself?
Just pay women equally! God!
I stopped in a Hobby Lobby recently, despite knowing their history, because I needed some stuff for a church Easter pageant and was parked nearby. (What can I say, it was convenient!) Their selection was lousy. I went to Joann Fabrics instead, happy and secure in the knowledge I wasn’t missing a thing by my decision…
Reason #4672 to support your local hobby shop when you’re feeling artsy-crafty.
Sadly, smuggling stolen goods does not appear in the Ten Commandments, while denying healthcare to female employees is right there in Two Corinthians.
So you’re telling me that Hobby Lobby, aka middle-aged white women’s go-to tacky décor store, is also a vast illegal international smuggling ring? Yea, OK, at this point this all is TOTALLY normal for this year.
Green was personally involved in this illegal smuggling. Personally. Why are there no criminal charges?

Having someone in my family (parents/brother) help pay…
I've experienced this.
i think you're right. those of us lower on the economic scale tend to understand that sometimes you need help and are usually far more willing to give it.
I've always found that people who have had it hard tend to offer the most help. It's like the life is hard club, I totally get how sucky car trouble is so I'm gonna help any little way I can if I see someone with a flat or with car trouble in an awkward area. Or Mr. Bats who works in transit and is constantly taking…
Personal anecdote time:
I'd like to see a similar study about religiosity. We all know that person who's SUPER DUPER INTO GOD AND EVERYTHING but wouldn't save a lost kitten if you paid them.
I kind of love that there's a whole genre of scientific study around proving that certain groups of people are bigger assholes that everyone else. Take comfort, organic food eaters, you are not alone: Science has also determined that SUV and Mac owners are assholes. Although god help you if fall into all three…
