The countless hours over many years takes toll on their bodies is why they should make as much as they. Professional athletes get paid what they deserve. Professional athletes get paid millions every year, which they deserve much for many different reasons. They are subject to numerous injuries every year. The athletes are lucky to make it through a year with out being hurt and having to miss one game, if not more.
Nevertheless, I found the statement "I can see no escape from the conclusion that each one of us with wealth surplus to his or her essential needs should be giving most of it to help people suffering from poverty so dire as to be life-threatening" (21) unrealistic and extreme. People have unalienable rights: “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” People have worked hard for their money; all those endless working nights, busy hour traffic, hard clients and difficult bosses make them so deserve their earnings to enjoy a comfortable life. And people paid high taxes for the right to live in the country; therefore, they should be entitled the right to do whatever they want with their money without
In Lithuania, its custom that guests at a wedding-feast leave money to cover the cost, but since they were in America, many of the guest leave the feast without leaving any money since money was being budgeted amongst each person due to the lack of jobs available. Jurgis, who has great faith in the American Dream, vowed that he will simply work harder to make more money so that they may pay off the debt and continue living in America without struggling. Jobs in Packingtown involve back-breaking labor, however, conducted in unsafe conditions with little regard for individual workers. Therefore, Jurgis quickly finds work since he is young and eager to work. The family signed an agreement to buy a house, but the house was poorly maintained so it was full of repairs which evidently would cost money that they didn’t have.
Aside from room, board, books, and tutoring, these athletes receive top coaching, training, and often exposure for a possible professional athletic career. Another issue is the fact that only a small percentage of these institutions generate profit from their athletic programs. Most see a loss of revenue. Therefore, these institutions could not afford to pay their athletes. An additional economic issue relates to how much an athlete would be paid.
Money is very important this day in age and using steroids will make you better than everyone and you will be rich and successful. Another is to win and acquire personal fame (III 1). Money is a very large reason for professional athletes to use steroids. But it has plenty incentives for someone who is trying to make it into the major leagues and need that extra “push” to get there so they can stop working hard boring jobs and get paid to do what they love.

Silent Death: Fatalities in the Line of Duty West Georgia Technical College Being a firefighter is not an easy job. Many people think of this profession as a public service and not necessarily as a career choice. It takes an extremely brave, systematic, conditioned, and most importantly, devoted person to do what these men and woman do on a daily basis. Firefighters face many dangers each day as they walk into the fire station. Some of these dangers are apparent such as death from fire, smoke inhalation, etc.
The conflict perspective is made up of the competitive nature of some humans and also the search for power and wealth. You can see this a lot in today’s sports most of the sports professionals have the completive nature but they also may just want the power and wealth hence why some football and baseball players turn down large sums of money because they feel that they are worth more when really they need to realize they are just entertainers and are only worth what someone is willing to pay. The interactionist perspective is what you see yourself as and what you think other people see you as. If you study sports form this perspective you could look at it like the sports professionals do such sports so they make themselves feel important or feel like they are important to other people. I ran into this a lot when I was in the Marine Corps a lot of the men a women that joined where just doing it so they felt important and had that sense of self-worth to themselves and to others.
In a society that is often obsessed with being entertained, the qualities and sacrifices made by doctors and surgeons are often ignored. Significant evidence will be provided to prove that duties and workmanship of a heart surgeon are more strenuous than that of a professional athlete. The evidence provided will prove that doctors and surgeons should be paid more and have a higher "hero" status that that of a professional athlete. Professional athletes are involved in an economically profitable business. They are appreciated by millions of fans.

I put it to you that athletes do have a high responsibility for their actions, both within their sport and in their wider life. No one lives in their own little world, what we do affects others. We all have responsibilities for our actions and the effect they have on others. However, athlete’s worlds are widely published and therefore, the effect their actions have on others are not limited to their immediate sphere. Everything they do is quickly & widely reported in the media which has become so powerful device for both increasing communication and ridicule.
