Whether you're the president of a corporation, or a janitor, you still only have 24 hours in a day. One of the biggest problems in this country is income inequality, which has created a society where people don't even have time to spend with their kids. Income inequality impacts our lives in a thousand small, unpleasant ways, because prices tend to go up to what the market will bear, meaning what the more affluent can afford. Society is slowly falling apart, as the rich get richer, and the poor and middle class sink into quicksand.
I propose a MAXIMUM WAGE LAW-You can make as much as you want, as long as you create wealth for everybody. The highest paid person in a company can make up to 10 times what the lowest paid worker makes, including the janitor, including temp workers and subcontracted labor, including the value of all perks and benefits, but not more than 10 times the lowest paid salary.
This is an old idea, i take no credit for originality, and it's an idea whose time has come. My dream would be for this to become an issue in the election, this election.
If you think this is a good idea, please forward or cut and paste this to everyone you know. Please don't email me, i don't want to spend my life in front of a computer. I'm not elucidating long arguments, just putting the idea out there. Do what you will with it.
