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

You would post a link to the story explaining how many jobs that were in China have come back.

They aren’t one for one that’s not how it works. See steel plants opened back up, did you know that? Let’s start there

Which steel plants?

The facts on Ohio steel mill reopenings under Donald Trump

You post to a link noting that Trump is lying but that there was one steel mill that opened after the tariff's were announced?

Yep, it reopened. How was he wrong? I added another in Texas

The article you linked noted he lied.

/——-/ Bullshyt. Capitalism has created the greatest standard of living in the shortest amount of time in world history. American poor are better off than poor anywhere else.

The number of Communists leaving America to escape capitalism——- ZERO.

The American poor are better off because for-profit American bombs are not falling on their schools, roads, and hospitals. The lifestyle you worship has been paid for with the deaths, mutilations, and displacement of millions of innocent human beings from Korea to Kandahar. And now even working class residents of North America and Europe are being buried under an avalanche of consumer debt while ten percent of their countrymen and women prosper.

"Forty-two billionaires now enjoy as much wealth as half the world’s population, while the three richest men in the United States—Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, and Warren Buffett—have more wealth than half the U.S. population.10 In every region of the world, inequality has increased sharply in recent decades.11 The gap in per capita income and wealth between the richest and poorest nations, which has been the dominant trend for centuries, is rapidly widening once again.12"

/——-/ So? It’s none of your business what others make. Go start your own business in your garage like Bezos did. Build your own Amazon.

It doesn't matter where Bezos started; he "earned" his current fortune by exploiting the surplus labor of his 556,000 employees.

Jeff does a fraction of the daily labor at Amazon, yet he's amassed $120 billion in compensation.

That occurred for only one reason. Capitalists have written the laws regarding how the spoils of industry are divided up.

/——/ 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.

It's not even the CEO's that I have the biggest issue with. It's that people who will never set foot on a companies property ever have to get raises before those who work there do.

Then if their raises are not enough, those who work there have to take pay cuts.......or worse like we saw with Boeing where people died.

"Less than two decades into the twenty-first century, it is evident that capitalism has failed as a social system.

The air quality because of the pollution is terrible. Are you aware that pollution is not climate?

Nope because you are a zombie

The air quality because of the pollution is terrible. Are you aware that pollution is not climate?

How long before pollution becomes climate, Rube?

Climate - Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Climate means the usual condition of the temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind, rainfall, and other meteorological elements in an area of the Earth's surface for a long time. In simple terms climate is the average condition for about thirty years. Climate and weather are different weather is the day to day conditions in the atmosphere."

Now how is pollution in that? Highlight that in your post

Perhaps. Do you wish to address my point about surplus labor?


Or is bringing in more dem voters more important than concern about wages?

Perhaps. Do you wish to address my point about surplus labor?

All human labor is a thing of value, i.e., a commodity, but unlike other commodities labor also creates value. The "owners" of the means of production derive their profit from exploiting the surplus labor of their workers.

In this system owners do everything necessary to increase profit: they fire workers, while expecting those who remain to increase productivity. They decrease benefits and set workers in competition with one another which drives down wages.

In short, it's not immigrants who decrease wages; it is the inherent unfairness of businesses run for profits which are split between owners and high-end managers, but where none of the surplus goes to the workers who create it.

/——/ Then you should know better than that ridiculous unfounded claim, even the 12% claim by the OP is way off. You know better.

Wages is only a part of the picture. 40 years ago cable was something like $17 a month. Now it is $100 - $200. 40 years ago the markets weren't demanding more, more, more.

/——/ Now you’re moving the goal posts and back peddling. Your original claim was 0.3% increase over 40 years.

I never made that claim.

/—-/ It was Frankie post #362

Sounds like both ideas are about bringing the jobs back.


I'm not poo pooing your punitive taxes idea. Why are you poo pooing tariffs?

That has been discussed over and over.

And generally, people against it complain that it is a tax that will raise costs to the consumer and, they claim, not work.


YOU on the other hand, are arguing FOR a more formal tax, so, what is your issue with tariffs?

It's been discussed endlessly. I already explained earlier today why I prefer taxing the corporation. If you wished to ignore that, I'm not going to repeat myself endlessly.

/—-/ Taxing the corporations merely increases the cost to the consumers so we end up paying the higher tax. As it’s been explained 100 times.

—-/ Taxing the corporations merely increases the cost to the consumers so we end up paying the higher tax. As it’s been explained 100 times.

And even after all those patient explanations you still can't answer this question: what benefits would natural citizens acquire from requiring corporations to pay their fair share in supporting the government that makes their existence possible?

How about free higher education?
Medicare for All?
UBI?

Doesn't look like your chart is crediting half the payroll taxes to the corporation. Weird.

On Hunger and Capitalism

"IN SEPTEMBER 11, 2001, approximately 35,000 of our brothers and sisters died from what is perhaps the worst possible cause of death — starvation. A decade after the 1996 World Food Summit set the goal of cutting the rate of hunger in the world by half, today approximately 854 million people are still starving, which is a great increase in comparison to the 842 million in the year 2000 (Food and Agriculture Organization, The State of Food Insecurity in the World 2006)."

"Contemporary capitalism no longer 'delivers the goods'—understood as a rising standard of real wages—to the majority of people. That classic defense of its instability (recurrent bouts of unemployment, lost output, and wasted resources), its deepening economic, political, and cultural inequalities (as Thomas Piketty documents), and the attendant injustices are no longer plausible.

"In the U.S. since the 1970s, and especially since 2007, those who control the dominant capitalist enterprises and the resulting economic 'development' made decisions that undermined the delivery of rising standards of living to the mass of people."

On Hunger and Capitalism

"IN SEPTEMBER 11, 2001, approximately 35,000 of our brothers and sisters died from what is perhaps the worst possible cause of death — starvation. A decade after the 1996 World Food Summit set the goal of cutting the rate of hunger in the world by half, today approximately 854 million people are still starving, which is a great increase in comparison to the 842 million in the year 2000 (Food and Agriculture Organization, The State of Food Insecurity in the World 2006)."

No one can beat Communism when it comes to starving people to death.

/——-/ So? It’s none of your business what others make. Go start your own business in your garage like Bezos did. Build your own Amazon.

It doesn't matter where Bezos started; he "earned" his current fortune by exploiting the surplus labor of his 556,000 employees.

Jeff does a fraction of the daily labor at Amazon, yet he's amassed $120 billion in compensation.

That occurred for only one reason. Capitalists have written the laws regarding how the spoils of industry are divided up.

/——/ 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!!

Where?

Where?

Globally (I think)
Here's a story from Bolivia:

On Hunger and Capitalism

"This type of wretchedness is an abstraction for us white people. Regardless of how much we see it around us, we cannot truly understand what poverty is because we do not suffer from it. At least not as much as the Indian peasant woman I met once in Bolivia.

"This peasant woman had four bowls of rice and five children. She gave each of her four oldest children a bowl but not one who was sitting in a corner.

"I asked her: ‘Why don’t you feed this child?’ She answered: ‘That one is the weakest, the youngest and in any case will be the first to die. I do not have enough food for all five so I have to choose, and I will not feed the one who will die first."
