True Celebrity

 Sometimes the inequality and unfairness of things just appalls and disgusts me. 

 I'm not even talking politics. 

 I'm referring to our celebrity-worshipping society with its emphasis on entertainment. 

 Consider this: "Octomom"Nadya Suleman's 14 children will each receive $250 per day (on camera) for appearing in a new reality show

 The combat pay allowance* for an enlisted Marine or soldier who puts his life on the line for his country 24/7 is $225.    That's per month.  

So, please explain to me the logic of this. 

  *This is in addition to basic pay and other allowances.
