    You’re describing capitalism and business. People higher up in more important positions get paid more, and they benefit from the work of the people hired under them. This isn’t new, nor is it exclusive to the film and television industry.

    CEOs etc get paid more because without them the people below them don’t have jobs to begin with. If you want to be paid more, work your way up the totem pole or find an industry with better wages at lower level positions.
