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.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
