    If their current wages are 1-10% of their previous wages then their previous wages were absurd because the average writers wage in the US is $70k, not including any residuals.

    Honestly I hope that out of this whole thing the idea of residuals for simply doing what you were paid to do goes away. How entitled do you have to be to think you should be paid forever for work you were paid to do?
