Essay 4 Topic

Are professional athletes overpaid?

I am going to argue that professional athletes such as Tiger Woods, LeBron James, Floyd Mayweather Jr, and Peyton Manning, etc... are overpaid when compared to other professionals in important fields such as teachers, engineers, doctors and dentists, etc...

The opposing side is that professional athletes are paid justly for their work and deserve all the money they are paid, while other professions such as those in the public health industry or education industry are not so deserving.

  1. I don't think they are paid to much because of the fact of all the money they generate, its only fair if they get a good portion of it, plus think of all the money the goverment gets out of it too with all the taxes n stuff.
