It
would be hypocritical to say that money or material well being need not be or
cannot be the common denominator for all aspects of life.
However, the trade off in terms of
various parameters decide the rewards and remuneration.
Parameters may vary depending on
overall impact of happiness that millions feel at an instant forgetting
all their personal problems like when a sport star or an artist performs,
utility at a macro level like mobile phone technology or at various levels the
following people perform doctor who treats patients, the unsung heros and
heroines the teachers, policemen, military foot soldiers, nurses, sanitary
workers, drivers, delivery persons, the billions of home makers ( who do more
work for no pay at all) and so on.
To compare and curse at a time of
crisis is bad attitude.
Having said all these, there are
certain professionals who earn atrociously disproportionately and they must
develop an attitude to come forward voluntarily to contribute atleast through
their financial might to the less advantaged.
All these are not to be caged in the
over verbalized stereotyped concepts of Left or Right but more of a free flying
attitude of humanitarian concern.
I am surprised why hasn't she spoke
about billions of dollars the religious places and people manning them earn in
many countries across many religions.
These types of speeches are in bad
taste and manifestation of pent of negative emotional anger of an
individual who may be right or wrong but at such crucial times it may trigger
lot of unwanted politicization and sensationalism instead of delivering
practical remedy.
Every context and performer has
certain unique roles and intense responsibility. If we are cutting vegetables,
we can afford not to be perfect at first attempt but a neurosurgeon cannot
afford that luxury.
A big football star may not even
indulge in food he likes or afford relax without physical exercise and
training or have family time when he wants. Who knows how long he has been
training and what are the things he had to sacrifice on the way up.
