It is easy to be upset about such big payouts. However, we shouldn't forget that Tom Hanks can earn back what they pay him many times over. A movie may be a big success with him and a total flop without him. For any job the important thing is how much money you generate for your boss. If you bring in the big bucks, then you should be paid big bucks. Now those big shots that make a company lose millions or even billions and are still being paid the big bucks -- they definitely don't deserve a single penny. That is a big abuse of the system.
