Cool. Everyone should work hard to become a CEO.

That. There's a reason they get paid the big bucks.

Pretty funny that workers wages stopped rising not long after we changed immigration laws to allow massive Third WOrld immigration.


But hey, let's not try changing the things that cause "inequality". That misses the point.


The point is just to talk about it. And make vague anti-American posts.

And the rest can be lowly compensated minions

They stopped rising after we cut the bottom out from unions.

Workers who can’t organize are left on their own. Easy prey to corporate masters

In 1965, the average CEO to average worker pay was 16 to 1. By 1989, it had reached 45 to 1. However, 20 years later by 2018, it reached 278 to 1.

Only morons believe the average CEO makes that much.

There you are, Angelo.

 

[B. Kidd]

Some CEO'S didn't deserve it.
Neither did some workers.

So, what's your point?

 

[Manonthestreet]

Pretty sure that's a whopper.

Unions have done a shit job for a long time. But maybe that is part of it.


THe wages did start to stagnate, not long after you guys got your Third World Immigration flood, that you wanted so bad and love so much.

 

[williepete]

compensation has a large impact on increasing inequality

Large impact? How about total impact? Dropping out of high school and never developing a strong work ethic has a total impact on inequality. Working hard, earning advanced degrees and competing and SUCCEEDING in a highly competitive, cut throat business environment has a total impact on inequality.

Hack it or pack it.

On the flip side, labor unions and workers who organized those were singularly responsible for China, India, Taiwan, Japan, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, etc. being the economic powers they are today, thereby causing the massive loss of American jobs. Did you expect all those American manufacturers to buckle and lose profit because of the extortion from organized labor?

There you are, Angelo.

They're including capital gains, stock dividends as well as income and bonuses and tax loopholes I'm sure.

I'm not sure that flies anymore.


We've seen a lot of movement of manufacturing to Southern States with non union labor, and the trade balance just continues to worsen.


I'm thinking the cause is more trade policy cheating by our "trading partners" and less to do with unions.

 

[shockedcanadian]

I'm all for the free market, but the excessive expansion of management across many businesses I believe hurts their productivity, especially with such massive salary demands.

Often they are paid well to find savings elsewhere, which becomes a lazy exercise in outsourcing to low wage nations.

If the labor pool is flooded with Cheap immigrant labor, employers don't negotiate, they dictate.
