That's absolutely not true. People complain all the time about grossly inflated CEO salaries. And sports stars. And actors. But at least they're not raiding MY WALLET.

Not entirely true. If a corporation is a given a tax break, and the loss in revenue is to be made up by raising taxes in another area it could potentially hit you in your wallet. Also, if you live in a city that subsidizes a sports franchise by building an arena or stadium at taxpayer expense then that likewise could hit you in your wallet.
