Oh okay. I read it differently. If you think about it though, athletes can be the dumbest people on the planet but if they hit, dribble, or kick a ball good enough they get paid more than someone who runs a country? Lol. Its weird :o

Its really weird that the Prime Minister of Ireland gets paid more than the president of The United States

Lol thats random.

Well obviously the Irish government has enough money to pay him that, because they do, so they might as well. They aren't going to cut his pay just so it can be lower than Obama's. (Sorry, I realise how un-technical that was, but you get my point?)

Oh we really dont have enough money to pay him as much as we do. Ireland is screwed economically to be honest, but we might aswell pay the man who screwed us in the first place far too much money for doing absolutely nothing!! (<--sarcasm)

we could get out of this damn recession if we weren't paying athletes and actors millions of dollars for nothing. come on, now. the fact that TV actors get paid MILLIONS of dollars for a single episode is absolutely ridiculous.
