Because heaven forbid someone else is ever successful or gaining while you are not!!! Even when nearly half the population pays no federal income tax and the 'evil rich' are now paying even more...
Well, the problem with this is that they told the American workers the wealth would "trickle down". How else would you get the American people to go along with that little con game? Know what happened? It didn't trickle down. It stayed at the top. Americans are working harder, longer hours for less and less - and have been for at least a decade. The American people bought the lie and now are onto the "job creators".
CEO and executive pay is 1/10th of 1% of the economy. Government, on the other hand, is more than 50% of the economy. Which, do you suppose, is more likely to the cause?
CEO's are now paid up to 400x that of their front line workers. THAT is the problem. The myth of trickle down in all its glory...

That is a claim with no visible means of support. Where is the proof that CEO pay is causing wages to decline?
CEO and executive pay hasn't dropped. Why have only the wage slaves lost income? WHY???
Love how no RW'ers will ever touch that question.

Simple, the more you pay the CEO, the less available for raises for all the underlings. It isnt' envy, it's this thing called MATH. Morons.
Dude, the info about CEO and wage inequality isn't hard to find.
I'll gladly touch it.
You claim is flatly wrong.
The top one percent received an income tax hike, so their income DID drop.
How quickly you have forgotten Obama's "you didn't build that" tax hike on the one percenters went through.
As I already pointed out, CEO pay amounts to 1/10th of 1% of corporate revenue. If you distributed all of it to the workers, they wouldn't even notice the difference in their paychecks.
The problem will libturds is that they can't even do simple math. Everything they believe is idiotic.

You mean the tax cuts that were already scheduled to expire, and that should have expired sooner -and would have if the Republicans had not held the debt ceiling talks hostage? Are you guys seriously amnesiacs or are you willfully ignoring recent history?

A wage earner got paid and budgeted on what the paycheck was. Taxes went up. The wage earner looked at the resulting paycheck and saw that it was less than he was getting before. The CEO salary has nothing to do with this person's salary.
You claimed, "CEO and executive pay hasn't dropped."
Their income taxes went up. Therefore, you lied, full stop.
See other tax hikes which were NOT part of the expiration in my previous post.

Holy shit, you righties are total ignoramouses. There is no point *double face palm*. Anyway, lunch break is over. Glad I work for a Japanese company that pays its executives @ 75x that of the rest of us.

There is a finite amount of money to be earned?? Funny.. That is not the case... so if a CEO makes 10MIL and the company makes a 15% profit bringing in say 10BIL.. it is bad for the $10/hr workers?? Even if they are not doing anything more than stuffing boxes and have not improved their skills and have not improved their productivity, they are OWED MORE?? Even when they can be replaced by any Joe Schmoe on the street?? Sorry... that type of expectation does not fly.. unskilled labor is still unskilled labor and will continue to be paid as such, even if a CEO negotiates more pay because his or her skills are rare and in demand

Thanks Barack.
US income plunged 3.6 percent in January its biggest drop in 20 years.
The Chicago Tribune reported:
U.S. consumer spending rose in January as Americans spent more on services, with savings providing a cushion after income recorded its biggest drop in 20 years.
Income tumbled 3.6 percent, the largest drop since January 1993. Part of the decline was payback for a 2.6 percent surge in December as businesses, anxious about higher taxes, rushed to pay dividends and bonuses before the new year.
A portion of the drop in January also reflected the tax hikes. The income at the disposal of households after inflation and taxes plunged a 4.0 percent in January after advancing 2.7 percent in December.
The Commerce Department said on Friday consumer spending increased 0.2 percent in January after a revised 0.1 percent rise the prior month. Spending had previously been estimated to have increased 0.2 percent in December.
