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.

No  one ask for million dollar raise. Wow go to the extreme. How about 100 million rather then 200 million for the CEO. EVen people skills are getting paid sh-t because the top is taking off with all the cash. You are exactly the people that make me laugh. Hey pay me less, also less heathcare, also less safe working habits. Thats the republican party. Push the money up not down and you have been sold down the river to accept sh-t as  pay and allow CEO and top execs to still your wallet right out  your hand. I run my own buisness. I pay people well. WHy is that? Because I have a sense of what people are worth. Not just sh-t on everyone on the bottom. People like you make me sad. You think that people should live in sh-t while the a few have it all?

No one said lets take all the ceo's pay. i have no problem with paying them well. No reason for what they do get paid, Millions in stock options and golden parashuts when they f-ck the whole company and steal everyone pensions.

WHY IS IT ALL OR NOTHING WITH CONSERVATIVE'S?? YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING WHAT FOX NEWS SAYS? JUST CAUSE WE THINK THE TOP MAKES TO MUCH MEANS WE ARE SOCIALIST, IT MEANS WE HAVE EMPATHY FOR PEOPLE WORKING AT WAL-MART.  If you work at walmart you have to much money for college grants. If you work at wal-mart for 10 years and this is managing area's. Your likely to make less then 12 dollars a hour in chicago. same jobs in the 80's you would have made $20 in todays money.
