Someone forgot to tell me that $500,000 isn't a lot of money to approve decisions others have already figured out.
Its about comparisons

Bud Selig of MLB made 17 mil last year.

And someone in Washington wants someone 1/34 as compitent to run what is essentially the backbone of the American economy (thats assuming we think Bud Selig is compitent)? Or for our Hockey fans, 1/12 as compitent as Gerry Bettman.

500K is alot of money. But 50 mil is more, if I had to choose betwen 500K and 50mil, I choose 50 mil.
