I'm not blaming the players. I just said they get paid too much.
They don't get paid too much at all. They have a lot of skill in a highly desirable area. People love entertainment. It would be like if there were only two doctors in the world who could perform a certain cosmetic operation, and then people complained that those doctors made too much money. There are markets for everything, and these guys are skilled in a very lucrative one.
They aren't making too much if you stop looking at it as elementary as "just playing a game" rather then a sector of the population that only 0.01% are ever good enough to be in, in a multi billion dollar industry where they're the main attraction.
Yep. They provide entertainment to millions of people that only a select few are capable of providing.
