Incredible isn't it? So if he made $19M before taxes, then the $10M in taxes he paid could pay the salaries of approximately 300 social workers. God bless the IRS and the USA. P.S. My sister is special needs, I spend a lot of time with social workers.

Good example for something I have said for years.
We need a maximum wage, not a minimum wage.

Maximum wage?
Sometimes the folks on this site amaze me.
So it's not enough to increase the tax burden of the one's who work for success, but now let's place a limit on what they are allowed to have?
Larry (real name is Daniel Lawrence Whitney) EARNED his $19 million from the movies and shows that people are willing to pay to see. I don’t see anyone making the same statement about the drug addicted sports players who make millions.
Even Bob Simon of 60 Minutes describes him as “a hard-working, supremely confident, happy-go-lucky funnyman”.
Daniel aka Larry is an American Dream come true story of how a kid who came from humble beginnings worked his way to the top.
I find it absolute astonishing that some of the same people who hope to hit millions in a game of chance turn around and condemn those who earn millions via hard work and real effort.
So I dare to ask you this Nancy, if your child wants to grow up to be a superstar comedian, what’s so bad about that?

Nothing at all, Sir Metro. That wasn't my point.
