Of course, again, you make a comment like that, you're labeled a communist/socialist. After all, it's capitalism at its finest, right? Free market?
The Roosevelts would be proud.

As long as people are willing to pay as much as they are for tickets to movies, sporting events, etc. the salaries will continue to go up. That is the free market working.
Once the general public decides they're not going to pay that much for tickets, or that they're not going to pay $6 for a soda, $4 for a hot dog, and $8-10 for a beer, then it will change. Until then...
