With a few exceptions, top footballers are the worst examples of human beings.
Entertainers generally are the same. They all start up because they love what they're doing (unlike labourers, clerks, etc), and at the age of about 15, they'd still love doing it, even as amateurs.
I'd bring out an 'Entertainment Tax' which would apply to Sportsmen, TV Stars, Newsreaders, and the rest of the vastly-overpaid cretins we 'worship'. The Tax would apply to any 'Entertainer' earning above £100k..... and they wouldn't bat an eyelid. What they 'earn' is immoral, considering they love what they're doing anyway. If they bugger off for more money - to USA or Spain - "cheerio" - I'll settle for 2nd best. But I'd hope that Biden & Co would follow suit!
(A good example of all this is that Fiona Bruce gets £450kpa of OUR Licence Fee for reading an autocue. They could teach someone on the dole to do that - as well as she does - for £30k, after, say, 2 months practice).
