CEO Compensation Increased 940% Between 1978 and 2018, Workers’ Only by 12%

[Correll]

/——/ What moron thinks the CEO who founded a company should do the bulk of the manual labor? You Progs get more ridiculous everyday. What don’t those doing the manual labor go open their own business if they feel exploited? Who forces them to work there? BTW liberal NY begged Amazon to open an office in Queens. I guess Gov Cuomo likes exploited workers. You retard.

No one expects CEOs to do any manual labor; they are too delicate (and greedy) The percentage of profits that go to CEOs is what I'm referring to. There is no reason those profits can not be distributed among the workers whose labor creates the profits, is there? Grinding austerity, falling real wages and acute funding crises gripping schools, hospitals, and most local government services are the price society pays for the worship of the rich.

Employee compensation is already much, much more than profits.

You're free to start your own company here and give all the profits to the workers.

Why haven't you? Greedy bastard!!

How much more do those greedy, useless eater shareholders think they're entitled to?
Wage Stagnation: Much More Than You Wanted To Know

Todd made a very strong claim about wages being much more than profits.


If his point is true, your argument is destroyed. You have to address it, or be revealed to be nothing but a propaganda spouting troll.


And I speak as both someone who wants to see large scale long term increases in wages AND as someone with his retirement invested heavily in stocks.

You were whining about profits going to owners rather than to workers.

Very true

Why did we give them a tax cut again?

If the return on capital is greater than GDP growth and the rich own most of the capital, then the rich will accumulate wealth faster than wage labor and rising income inequality becomes inevitable.

Do you believe there are two and one-half times as many robots installing air conditioning systems today than there were in 1979? When millions of living wage manufacturing jobs are outsourced to China and displaced workers are forced into minimum wage employment, economic and societal changes are shaped by ideologies and power structures as much as by technological developments.

Nope, robots are not installing more air conditioners but they are BUILDING at least 2 1/2 times more air conditioners.

Do you deny that we have more jobs available today than we have workers?

What is the typical household income where one of the workers is earning the minimum wage?
