Life isn't fair. Do I think its fair some people get born with billions of dollars to their name? Probably not. Do I care? I honestly don't. Find and create your own path.

I would disagree, because the concept of "fair" doesn't really exist - every person has his own perception of what "fair" is. Therefore, it's much more useful to build society on concepts that we can actually agree on.
This value is influenced by free decisions of people, like you, who decide to invest in it. If those people (just like you) would decide that the developers are getting an unfair share and therefore, the currency is not valuable for them, Etherium wouldn't have such valuation.
But for some strange reason, people don't care about how much do developers get and how "fair" their compensation is, as long as they get their value out of it.
(I'm sorry for the rant, but I always feel really irritated when people bring the word "fair" into a situation which is controlled by a free market with a lot of small individual agents who are free to act in any manner they like and are not dealing with something they need for the basic survival.)
