Economic inequality biggest reason for violence. Not gun laws.

You're right, all wealth should be redistributed completely evenly so that there is no such thing as economic inequality. Then there would be no violence! Problem solved.

No one said that. Just pay people better, You know a living wage. Not peanuts. The CEO's don't need to make 200 million a year and yes they do with stock options. Thats how they hide what they make. It will say 25 million on pay but with stock options it's way higher.

It's not a all or nothing approach. It's not being a greedy f--k. The tops that make that type of money and want more is a disease, not a good business man but someone who has a mental issue.  I would never need that much and if I did I would be Like bill gates and work full time to make sure my money was helping thousands of people but one person can't do it. Goverments have to do it.

Why should a guy down on the assembly line with no skills at all, who could replaced at the snap of a finger, be arbitrarily paid more than he is worth? And okay let's bash CEO's...you think you could run a fortune 500 company? I know I couldn't. They have a unique set of skills that makes them worth the millions they are paid, and they look after and create thousands of jobs and contribute hugely to society through job creation and paying taxes. 

No, the real problem is people sense of entitlement. People aren't happy unless they have what everyone else has. Guess what, greed isn't something only found in rich people, you don't think poor people are greedy? Economic inequality is no excuse for violence.
