Answer to Question 1

Some professional athletes have a very high marginal revenue product. Profit-maximizing firms employ labor if and only if marginal revenue product is equal to or greater than market wages.

Answer to Question 2

Typically a school tax would fit under the benefits-received principle of taxation. However, the elderly are not likely to have school-age children living at home. Therefore the benefits-received principle is weakened in this case.
