Footballers Should Not Be Paid More Than Army Soldiers

I imagine most people would agree with this statement yet in British footballers are paid more than triple than someone who was fighting the war in Afghanistan would, personally I think its a disgrace.

Footballers are just celebrities who get paid far too much for very little work. Now that I think about it, why would you pay someone a six figure sum to do a childhood activity? Footballers don’t risk life and limb for what they do, their families aren’t lying awake at night wondering if their loved ones will return home alive or in a coffin.

Footballers are treated like

royalty while an Army Soldier is treated like a nobody most of the time.
No one rolls a red carpet, they would be laughed at if they demanded V.I.P access at a hot club. A man or woman at war does not live in a mansion and have people do everything for them.

Army housing is in fact getting cut for British Soldiers, now they don’t even have that privilege, While once again footballers live in comfort and have the world at their beck and call. Well Soldiers do have one thing footballers don’t, the respect of their public. That is something money will never buy you.
