Like it or not, the multimillionaires are far closer to us than they are to billionaires. It's not even close. Even at 100,000,000 you're far closer to the everyday person.
So yes, I consider a union of actors to be a union, even if the actors are making millions. Our common enemy is still the billionaires and corporations, who are wealthy beyond imagination.
Besides, actors tend to be liberal and do a lot of philanthropy. It's probably because with all their wealth, they still feel closer to the common person and remember their upbringing.
Solidarity means all workers, even the ones who get paid too much. Don't fall for the divisions that billionaires want to create.
It's also important to remember that most actors aren't multi-millionaires, only the famous ones are.
Yep. Actors who don't have named roles probably aren't making close to millions, maybe a couple hundred k at best. More likely less. Actors who've accumulated a reputation but are in things like TV shows or Netflix movies are closer to a few million. It's why those actors, despite having popular acclaim, are still very down to earth.
Some quick math to put things into perspective:
