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

[Remodeling Maidiac]

An Economic Policy Institute study shows that the dramatic increase in CEO compensation has a large impact on increasing inequality--worker pay could have doubled without the rise in CEO income.

But, greed is good isn't it ?

Know what's worse than greed? Jealousy

What others make is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS

Capitalism is failing the masses.

Communism is murdering the masses.

Capitalism is also murdering the masses.

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.

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

Yes the republicans sent our well paying jobs to china with their war on unions. Now they pretend to want those jobs back.

We sold out to management

Executives saw their pay skyrocket while stockholders saw increasing profits

All on the backs of low paid labor

Capitalism is also murdering the masses.

Actually, no. It is employing the masses and making their lives better.

As opposed to socialism, which is stealing from them and ultimately starving them.

Yes it is our business

When corporate America says they can’t give raises, can’t provide healthcare, cut back on retirement benefits

All while seeing record profits and outlandish executive pay

It IS OUR BUSINESS

Russia's life expectancy had risen fast under communism. In 1913 the life expectancy was 32 by 1950 it was 64.Health in Russia - Wikipedia

It started off 20 years lower than the USA.

The problem I have with CEO compensation, it isn't tied to stock performance. There are so many examples of CEOs who made terrible decisions that crashed the stock price but they still got all their salary PLUS bonuses. That isn't right IMO.

 

[SAYIT]

Cool. Everyone should work hard to become a CEO.

Hard work doesn't make you a ceo. Unless you were born rich, you aren't in the running.

Spoken like an ignorant LOSER.

Boeing. The CEO put shareholder value over safety. People were killed. He should be in prison.

That's not really something to brag about. The US life expectancy in 1913 was between 50-55 for men/women respectively. By 1950 it was 65-71 for men/women respectively.

Of course, we didn't kill off all those people like the Russians did during their revolution and under Stalin. You neglected to count the 500,000 killed in the Bolshevik Revolution and the 20 million killed by Stalin, so the life expectancy stats for Russia are pretty much a moot point.

Most companies see their hard working laborers as bad people who are to be used and trashed.

Bill Gates and Steve Jobs were born rich?

Facts notwithstanding, life's bitter losers have a constitutional right to whine to their heart's content.

The Left spend all of their time looking over the fence coveting what their neighbor has.

The big ticket unions cut their own ballz off. And when it came down to it thought of themselves first instead of their brothers when times got tough for them. Everything grandfathered and guarantees for those lucky enough to be. Government unions and government employees need to be busted also. Corrupted trade unions and monopolies need to be dealt with. But you are right about CEO's. For when the failing American production companies closed here a few decades ago or so, CEO's got big payouts for their ineptitude. That I did not forget. p.s.....Progs bolted from purchasing American made products before anyone else. And frankly after being screwed over with American products like cars over and over and being treated like crap from dealers and repair places, I do not care anymore. Asian cars rock!

Our CEOs are paid many times more than CEOs in other countries yet they do not achieve any better and often worse performance
