Disproportionate

This world is called "Alma Di-shikra" - the world of falsehood. There are COUNTLESS indications of this. Here is one.

The most important world leader is clearly the President of the United States. Billions of people are affected by his decisions. His yearly salary is four hundred thousand dollars a year. There is a nice gentleman of Hispanic roots named Alex Rodriguez. His job is to hit a spherical object as hard as he can with a piece of lumber and then run as fast as he can in a circle. For this he receives THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS a year.

Hmmmmmmmm. Possibly a lack of proportion here?

And a public-school teacher who is dedicated to educating the next generation is going to make in one year what Alex makes in two thirds of an inning.

A myseh with Babe Ruth: When asked whether he thought he deserved earning $80,000 ($1,099,442 inflation-adjusted), while the president, Herbert Hoover, had a $75,000 salary, Ruth famously remarked, "What the ... has Hoover got to do with it? Besides, I had a better year than he did."
