Ok so all of us normal people are struggling to survive during this harsh time while the wealthy stars of hollywood are living it up. Now what is wrong with this picture. How is it that they get money for either singing or being in a movie and aren't even struggling I mean they live in mansions and drive fancy cars and the rest of us are left trying to figure out how to pay for gas and pay our bills. Something should be done about this. Us common folk need to come first instead of the celebrities. This isn't just in the USA but in other countries as well. People starving and struggling while limos go past with some new young celebrity living it up. Unfair really unfair.

It just goes to show our priorities. Those who make films or can sink a ball are some of the wealthiest people. Meanwhile nurses, teachers, police officers, EMTs and people of many other worthwhile professions have to struggle. We need to get our priorities straight in this country. Things get bad enough folks will not have the money to spend on these frivolities and the level of living will equalize. The difference is we will already be used to it...lol.
