Either you have to buy that yourselves and most of the people you know are just plain failures in life which resulted in yourselves and most of the people you know only growing about 23% since the 80's , while executives grew 100% and over -
Or, you'd have to agree that something went awry.
And I don't think that executive compensation should be anything short of miraculous - but I'm talking a macro-level nightmare going on because they should grow (as a percentage, not REAL dollars) around the same rate.
What the executives make is irrelevant. Burger flippers don't make $15 an hour.
It's relevant to 95% of America, and probably including yourself.
They should have grown at 23% just like the rest of us.
Real dollars - of course they should have added way more.
But growing as a percent - it should be the same. And it's 23% to 100-300%.
Did all of America up and vanish, stop working hard, become unskilled? 95% of us?
You realize that if min wage grew to 15$ an hour that everyone making 15 before that increase would be vastly more poor in a short period of time as cost of living dramatically raises?
Now imagine what you did to everyone that made 9-14 bucks an hour.... People making 16-20 would now be near min wage.... You pretty much don;t understand very very very basic economics.
