9 CEOs paid 800 times more than their workers
This story doesn't surprise me.
The normal nature of American capitalism. Exploit workers an benefit off the backs of their labor. Meanwhile families rely on credit and struggle to provide a decent chance at opportunity for their children.
Exploitation is the very basis of American existence.

Meanwhile wages are stagnant for workers and the economy is slow.

obama admin = stagnant wages

Was stagnant before that.

Who exactly is demonizing the poor? Is it possible the CEO is bringing in 800 times the money the dishwasher is? Taking human frailties out means reducing government, I'm all for that.

As expected, your comprehension skills are wanting. "Who is demonizing the poor"??? What's your party saying abut, both "illegals" and other minorities?

Based on this recurring topic regarding the outrageous "compensation" of greedy CEOs......it would be somewhat refreshing for right wingers to expand their vocabulary when countering democrats, a bit more than the inane stating of:
"Are you jealous?"........"Envy is a bad thing"......Or, "Get a job so you can become a CEO too..."

You mean you don't want to deal in the truth but want to fixate on he envy, jealousy and greed we,ascribe to your kind...? got it......

CEO compensation has nothing to do with the pay of other workers.......and in order to compete you have to attract the best...it is no different than professional athletes....if you lefties look at it like that perhaps you would understand it....sometimes you pay the big salary and get a star..sometimes you pay a big salary to the quarterback out of college and they suck...no different in the business world...the 100 million dollar quarter back, works a month or two and gets more money than the ticket taker...yet you silly people never bring that up......and sports is far less important than American business......

or, look at it like actors......they get paid far more than CEOs for much less,actual,work......far more than the union electrician on the set.......the 100 million dollar actor works a few weeks.....and still gets,paid if the movie flops......for a while....the union electrician......works the same few weeks....and gets paid 70 bucks an hour.......yet you guys focus on CEOs who actually work really hard to run all aspects of a business 24/7, 365 days a week...and they are hired by those companies....and if they don't perform well...those companies suffer for their choice just like the pro teams or the movie company.....

I don't have a party, "illegals" is not synonymous with "the poor" nor is the right condemning minorities. You're 100% full of shit.

Ethics and morality seem to escape a large number of people.

It looks as if it is going to have to be done the hard way.

illegals broke the law, passing over people who followed the laws for entering the country legally......you are essentially saying the bank robber is just as valid as the bank customer simply because they are both withdrawing money because they need it....

Two quick responses:

1. We are resembling France prior to their revolution, and
2. We demonize poor, illegals for washing dishes at our restaurants and exalt greedy CEOs who while collecting millions, sit around trying to figure out how to avoid paying any taxes.

Capitalism works best when human frailties are taken out of the equation.

These guys are just idiots taking marching orders from above. Their thought masters tell them what to get outraged about so they can gain power. It's no more complicated than that.

Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign has consistently paid its female staffers less than it has paid males, according to a Washington Free Beacon analysis of the campaign’s public payroll records.

In both May and June, the only two full months of available data since the campaign launched, the median salary of a female on Clinton’s staff was found to be far smaller than that of a man.

In May, women on her staff earned 88 cents for each dollar that was earned by men. In June, the campaign staff grew by 55 employees and women fared even worse, earning just 87 cents for each dollar earned by men.

When projected out to reflect annual salary figures, it was calculated that the median annual salary for a woman would be about $7,000 less than the median male salary.

So you are saying that Hillary earns 800% more than the average staffer?

Stop being a greedy envious Moon Bat. If you don't like the salary that a CEO gets from a corporation then your remedy is simply not buy any goods or services provided by the corporation. That way you won't be contributing to the salary that you don't like. Problem solved.

You need to worry about the money that you make and not be obsessed with worrying about what other people make. It just makes you look greedy.

I think most people don't understand how these corporations are actually run... The main shareholders in these organisations are Pension Funds and Unit Funds which are controlled by Financial Institutions. These Financial Institutions are a cartel especially in the Investment banks.

So is this Capitalism or Cronism?

No..?Making other people happy is the basis of American existence...otherwise people don't pay you for things......exploitation is the np hallmark of socialism...where you can choose not to work and live off of the work of others, and everyone is poor...except for the political leadership and their friends...

and who is the beneficiary of those pensions....teachers, union painters......who would like their own pension funds to do well enough that they can live off of them....right?

That is called investing....how else do you make more than you put in...unlike social security that steals,from one worker to pay another worker, pensions need to generate money...and that involves,risk...no way to avoid it.
