Ya I am split on the issue myself. The USA has min wage, but it’s pretty low and it there is more inequality than just that. It just feels like execs get more than their fair share. Like when the US is compared to Japan, Japanese execs have less extreme inequality among employees in the same company. I wish there were ways to incentivize that. No individual human needs to be worth a billion dollars.
And while it’s true that the execs have earned something, studies show that there is more luck and randomness to their performance than personality-cults will acknowledge. It’s annoying that they are entitled so much wealth when studies shows that performance of their companies is much more Influenced by other factors than that one execs work alone.
