the 25x thing almost sounds like a half-decent idea
but there's the hippie in me going again
fuck off commie
They should try stepping into the shoes of a CEO for a day.
Billionaires don't get a wage usually. That's for plebeian hired CEOs and shit.
Oh stfu. People like you are so stupid that you actually think you will step into their shoes one day which is why the 1% will always hold the power. Retarded Trump supporters really think these guys will allow them to join "their club." You can get rich off crypto but they'll still sniff out your normie ass from a mile away
fucking stupid as fuck
The people high up earning big salarys worked their ass off to get to that point. They didn't spend their days posting on facebook and twitter (donald trump is an exception) they spent their days with their fucking nose in a book and their mind focused on their goals and doing good at whatever they do.
If i need heart surgery or i am going to die I don't mind paying that doctor a large chunk of money for saving my life.. I don't mind that the CEO of wellsfargo gets paid millions in salary.. you know why? because the money is safe in the bank and i can transfer it back and forth between places (brokerages, exchanges, people) and have trust that the corporation will keep my money safe because they get paid to do that and manage all of that.
People that think someone that gets paid too much is an obvious fucking entitled retard that never works hard but only complains about the people that worker harder than them.
Don't worry about you neighbors grass.. worry about your own and make it the best you can. Its basic economics when it comes to your mental and physical energy (scarcity, absolute advantage, opportunity cost) If these fucking losers put as much time into building up their life as they did building up their fucking twitter, facebook, instagram profile maybe they would be making good money too

You don't have to be a CEO worth billions. Learn how much they have to manage.
i wonder why these people never advocate the banning of usury and other various schemes that tear our society apart
This is the problem with the faggots at the bottom of society. They rather just burn it all down and start new then attempt to work themselves up to the top.
>They worked their ass off to get to that point
How stupid could could you be? Big money doesn't exchange hands as easily as you would like to believe. Nepotism, look it up doofus
My first reaction was "fuck off you worthless commie", but after carefully thinking about it, and taking into consideration all the dimensions of this issue, i think we can all agree with the following statement :
Fuck off you worthless commie.
i agree with satan
Don't pay attention to my number, it's pure coïncidence.
>The people high up earning big salarys worked their ass off to get to that point.
Yeah ... inheriting money from mommy and daddy isnt that much work you know.
Yeah ... youll end in hell brainwashed burgerbrainlet
Fuck off you worthless commie.
sorry i didn't know you can inherit brain surgeon skills or skill to manage fortune 500 companies.......... wow i guess they wasted their time with all that schooling huh? I could've just been born the son of a brain surgeon and i too would have the magical gift to be a brain surgeon.. wow..
sage
oh I didnt know all rich people are brain surgeons. good to know.
I didn't know you can inherit brain surgeon skills and skip school all together.. wow.. its amazing..
could you imagine if you didn't get paid more for doing something like brain surgery.. nobody would want to better society because why they fuck would they care.. whats the incentive?

Lol none of this will ever happen
I think something needs to be done and those aren't bad ideas.. Its really depressing going to places like walmart and seeing all the old people, and they work hard too. They don't deserve it man. You know they get minimum, fuck you should get paid more to have to work in such a soul reducing environment all day. I wish we could count on business workers to be good and pay their workers more.
poor people make poor decisions.. so many people shop at amazon even though the employees at amazon warehouses are treated like sweat shop laborers and amazon itself is crashing mom and pop shops but yes.. lets just keep feeding the fire and keep shoping at places like walmart and amazon.. because you know.. it's not hurting our economy in the long run at all....
sage
Well amazon is affordable and convenient as fuck. It benefits society to a large extent, it would be even more beneficial if the working conditions and pay was better for them
Lol being this mad. Go back reading ayn rand my woke 23yo libertarian ancap friend. Maybe one day youll be allowed to live your pedo dreams you sick fuck
good response.. i really didn't expect much more from someone as retarded as you though tbqh.. have fun being a miserable pleb the rest of your life kid, you aren't going to get anywhere with that crybaby attitude.
i really don't see how amazon is beneficial to the economy.. just because a 7/11 or circle k is convenient to get a quick drink or snacks doesn't make it beneficial to your wallet... but hey.. it's convenient r-right?
SAGE
>it benefits society to a large extent
Wait a few more years and see what happens lol
No. They’re communist pieces of shit
You remember the 2016 bank bailout? If you really think CEOs have your best interests in mind, you’re delusional
I don't mind huge salaries if the system can fuck off with its centralization and erosion of human rights.
As it is, the economy is stopping and everyone still wants to play musical chairs. Grab your chair before it's too late.

also, some people DID get their money by doing lots of efforts... but most of them got money because they were in the right place at the right time, and knew the right things.
>it's pure coïncidence
yeah, pure (((cohencidence)))
>They think they can join the 1%
This is why we'll never beat them. We have idiots like these on our team fighting for THEM
Convenience is literally the most important thing.. That's what people care about these days. That is why there wasn't a big uproar over facebook this year. Also "benefits society" does not necessarily mean your wallet you stupid fuck. Use your head.
What will happen?
>because the money is safe in the bank and i can transfer it back and forth between places
FUNDS.
ARE.
SAFE.
do you understand what would happen to the worlds economy if the banks didn't get bailed out in 2008?
stop being a little bitch crybaby and work toward your own better life and stop worrying about others. b-but its not fair! oh shut up you fucking crybaby
you must be 18 to post here
how about boycott certain things that destroy the economy? facebook is toxic.. go ahead and stop using that.. walmart destroys local business.. go ahead and stop shoping there.. etc.. it all starts with the people.. if they really want to make a change it starts with them changing their behavior not crying like little children because someone is doing better than them. Poor people make poor choices!
who said anything about wanting to be the 1%? i don't give a fuck if i am ever the 1% i want to just be well off and have a good life.. thats where you and i differ i guess.. i work toward my idea of a good life you work toward crying about how you don't have as good of a life as the 1% and think it's unfair.. so instead of working toward your better life you try to bring other people down because you suck at life and are envious like a little fucking child.

I don't understand why I'm even bothering arguing with a brainlet like you. Do you not understand the distribution of wealth? The 1% hold as much money as the bottom 95%. Judging by your responses I can tell you're a selfish little brat that wishes to one day have the bankroll to back up the sassy attitude.
Not if, but when you fail in life it'll be a glorious day. You seem pretty lonely so I hope you can cope when the time comes
lmao at you retards actually advocating for the people in the tweet. im surprised only one person in the thread is actually arguing against them desu. Shame on you biz. shame on you.
If you really care, then stop being a fucking hypocrite and destroy your sweatshop made iphone, your sweatshop made clothes, your sweatshop made electronics... oh whats that wagie? y-you dont want to? then shut the fuck up and get your entitled as fuck ass back to work. if you really think socialism is better than capitalism then go live in fucking Venezuela. Im sure thats working out just great.
I think a 1000x rate would work personally, like if you're making 15,000 an hour you can probably afford your lowest employees 15
>Judging by your responses I can tell you're a selfish little brat
i worked my ass off to get to where i am right now and i used to think the same way as you until i turned 18 and had to deal with real life. and realized its not so easy but i fucking did it. Since i worked my ass off to get where i am now you are right, i am selfish! i don't want to pay out my money that I earned through my long hours of work and study because some little cry babies think it's unfair that i worked harder and sacrificed things for what i have now.

>people against nepotism
Nepotism is great and if you think otherwise you're literally an antisemite.
the cold, hard truth is that some individuals bring bigger benefits to society than billions of others
money is not merely a tool to let us buy overpriced coffees at starbucks and "smash capitalism" t-shirts, it's an abstraction to represent a form of social capital
you can't "cap" the value people put on other people and services. as long as the same idiots who clamor for a maximum wage will line up to buy louis vuitton bags and vote for mass immigration lowering their own wages, whoever is on top will find a way to profit handsomely and the gap will only increase
>If you really care, then stop being a fucking hypocrite and destroy your sweatshop made iphone, your sweatshop made clothes, your sweatshop made electronics...
fucking this!
Anyone that says otherwise is probably still living off mommy and daddies tit
Okay retard. How do you plan to incentivise the actual people who do actual hard work if you cut their salaries in half? You know, the doctors, the lawyers, the scientists... the people that actually matter in society. I hate to break it to you but 95% of society are literally useless... do you really think sally that works at walmart will be remembered 5 years after her death by anyone other than close friends and family? No. no she wont because she literally provides zero value to the human race aside from stocking shelves. However, Chad with his PhD in biology is going to help drive forward the cure to cancer. Chad with his PhD in comp sci. is going to end up designing a new programming language or help push moore's law forward. These are the people that get paid high wages... and do you know why? its because they fucking deserve it.

scalablity across the entire workforce is the real problem
if you're a small business that happens to be making shitloads of money, fine....but it simply wouldn't be feasible for 98%+ of bigger corporations
>t. retard berniebro with tons of student debt and a philosophy degree
Fuck a cock sucker, you really think a CEO does more then x300 more work then his average employee, you are a brainlet. Even myself find the more money I make the less I have to do, anyone else experiencing this also?
this!
anybody that argues with this is an obvious as fuck troll and should be ignored.
lol. I cheated life and made it in crypto faggot ;) But at least I can still look at things objectively. other than you, who only thinks about themselves and envies those who make more than him and are more skilled than him so much that he feels their salaries should be cut in half.

How dumb are you? You think nobel peace prize winners are in the 1%? It's the greed, souless psychopath that wants to take over the world. Yes, let's reward him and just him so the rest of the country can suffer. I honestly don't understand how there are idiots like you with this retarded mentality
>lawyers,

What a larp!
so you are saying nobody should try doing better? we should just keep knocking the people on top down even if they have done alot to better society? hmmmm
you mean to get the laws changed on maximum salary you aren't going to need lawyers??? hmmm
obvious trolls.
Nice larp. Even those that made it in crypto have't even made it like the top tier. Somewhere in you mind you think you can relate to them because you will be in their shoes one day. That just goes to show you hold some bitterness to the pathetic life you have lived and think money and lots of it will make you. They really did fool you
Not wanting to give your hard-earned money to someone else for free does not make you selfish. Don't let yourself be baited by commies and don't sell yourself short.
Pic related is the top 5 richest people in the world. 4/5 of them provide services that literally billions of people use. Are you telling me jeff bezos didnt help drive the human race forward by making a tonne of products accessible to anyone in any country that wouldnt be available to them otherwise? Are you telling me that zuck didnt make a network that literally connects tens of millions of families that live abroad together? Are you telling me that bill gates didnt invent the OS that literally enabled computers to become a user-friendly household item which led to any layman being able to create software that can now FURTHER push the human race forward?
How would paying workers more and leaders less help the following:
- price of food
- price of health care
- price of shelter
- price of education
- price of transportation
?
People who make 100x or 1000x the wage of the people at the bottom are not eating 100x or 1000x as much food, driving 100x or 1000x as much, in need of 100x or 1000x surgeries (though they may actually be able to afford them), or getting 100 or 1000 college degrees per person.
You just pay the people at the bottom more and that money will go directly into purchasing more basic goods, raising prices.
If we want to make a better world for the people at the bottom, we have to increase the supply of those things. Not increase the amount of purchasing power of those who demand them- prices will simply adjust until the amount of those things produced and distributed is in equilibrium with the amount of dollars demanded of them, which is still going to leave people hungry, uneducated, unhoused, lacking medical care, etc.
You can't get around the problem of there not being enough stuff for everyone by tossing more dollars in the crowd so more people can compete for the same limited amount of stuff. If the amount of stuff doesn't change much, then the number of winners and losers won't change much. You just have to have more stuff.
No, there's nothing correct about socialism
I've got an helicopter ride waiting for you piece of subhuman trash
this also. its basic logic. simply giving everyone more money does nothing to help poor people's situation.
Do you mind when they fail and get huge bonuses on the way out after failing? Or let me guess, that's ok because it was agreed on earlier, end of story.
Nice strawman. We're not talking about the those types of hardworking skilled people, we're talking about overpaid CEOs. Go look at what CEOs in other countries are paid compared to the lowest on their company's totem pole. It's a vastly greater difference in America.
They do.
Anytime I hear "fuck off commie" I want to place a bet: American. I'd make more money than I lost.
>thinks sage will do anything if they keep talking and faking indignation while posting frog pictures
(You)
Would putting a cap of 1 Billion on a person prevent any of those you mentioned from inventing those? No, it's really that simple...
Americans seem to be the only people who understand that socialism is a cancer the only exists as a result of human jealousy. No one's stopping you from creating your own billion-dollar company.
Payment not about the amount of work done, it's about how replaceable an employee is. Employment wages are no different than any other bargain done in a store or market. One party is buying, another is selling. A person earning higher pay means that he has a skill in demand, and can command a salary that high in any other negotiation. The highest paid members of working society are the ones with the most leverage, the rarest skills. Those with very few licenses and very high utility (doctors, lawyers, engineers).
The same holds true in warehouses. Any able-bodied can work in a warehouse, but not everyone is licensed to operate a forklift or other heavy machinery. Those employees can demand a raise, since they are not as easily replaced. The idea that employees are paid in a way that reflects the bottom and top or some other obscure way of valuing someones skillset is beyond retarded. The labor market works the same way as any other market, with it's own set of buyers and sellers of labor (1099 vs. W2, benefits vs. higher pay, sick time, health insurance, etc).
They don't have billions of cash. They have some stuff that others would offer money for.
If I offered $100,000 for a square foot of your parent's home, would that make their home worth 800x$100,000 ? Should someone step in and prevent them from having something so valuable?
The top 1% in the US is only $350k per year you fucking retard. That's not fuck you money at all. Fuck off
How would that benefit you or me?
Only Americans believe monopolies are ok
Social engineering is a thing that happens naturally in peacetime. It is the side effect of even having the hint of a meritocracy. One would be smart to realize that will happen no matter what or who and actualize their own agenda. The problem is, everyone is on the chopping block sooner or later, even the elites. The elites won't listen though, but it will soon happen.
Makes us feel better because we like to hurt people who are more fortunate than us, because we are literally children, obviously.
>commies expropriate and market sell thousands of stocks from a wealthy person
>price crash and now the company isnt worth shit
Every company with rich stakeholders would start dumping immediately before the commies start market selling everything
You don't even know what the 1% is you fucking retard. It's not a club, in fact people move into and out of it all the time.
This. Retards literally think that being a "billionaire" means you have 1 billion dollars in cash sitting in a bank account. They don't understand net worth, debts, assets or anything else. They're fucking retarded
TOP.FUCKIN.KEK. Imagine being this dumb
>posts list that does not include royalty
It's $430k you fucking retard. Every single post you've made in this thread is like it's written by a bitchy jealous middle aged woman who is mad at life. You're a bitch and you'll never be anything else.
I would rather zuck control that $49 billion than have it distributed between millions of poor people for them to waste it on shit like supreme clothes, iphones, ps4's and a bunch of other shit that they dont need and cant afford but seem to buy anyway. At least zuck will be using the money to help drive artificial intelligence forward or invest in companies that are of value. Do you really think that the millions of poor people that get zuck's money would spend it in a way that pushes the economy forward better than zuck's spending would?
It's not, though.
Fuck you money is by definition the amount of savings / assets you need to say fuck you to your boss and quit your job and not need to worry about working to keep your lifestyle.
If you want a $30k/yr poverty lifestyle, "fuck you money" means having $1 million accumulated.
$350k of income means you likely make $175k after taxes. If you save $100k of that per year, you can save up $1M in like 7-14 years, depending on what happens to your savings as you toss it in the stock market.
Except, if you're making $350k/yr in Manhattan, $1M isn't fuck you money, because you probably don't want to move to bumfuck Montana and raise your family on $30k/yr after working 7-14 years.
The point is, even people making shitloads of money are dependent obntheir jobs and one unlucky medical event away from losing their jobs.
They get a shinier apartment, medical care, and better food, but the real key is, the person living a shitty life on $30k/yr will have to work forever, while the people making $350k/yr will have the option of giving all that up to live like $30k person - but no longer work - after about a decade.
>shitty AI surveillance from cuckerborg that is likely funded by CIA gibs
>shitty we wuz kangs receiving gibs and immigration
Both are shitty. Stop having huge fragile corporations that grow huge and then bust within a few generations like Facebook that also manipulate government for gibs and you'll solve a ton of problems. Bring back anti trust laws.
You make it sound like they are two equal people who just happen to be making different amounts of money, as if its some arbitrary number pulled out of a hat during the hiring process.
Those who are closer to having a monopoly on their high-utility labor can command these high 6-figure salaries. Those who have relevant experience, who know and understand an industry, and are competent people may even be eligible for multimillion-dollar C-level jobs, to essentially be working on the bridge of the ship that is the large corporation.

Can that be considered part of his wage? I don't think these people understand.

I hate entitled fucks so much, why do people think they deserve anything at all. Sure, many employers exploit people but if you have any valuable skills at all you can quit and find a job where you will be paid appropriately. I used to be a centrist but the left makes me hate them so much.
