I got it from a source.

I'm not saying government should force them to do it. I'm just saying that income gaps are not healthy for a republic.

What "income gaps" are you talking about? Do you think everyone should make the same money? Why?

Salaries and wages are based on the market, and the particular job. You can't make everyone equal that way. That's ridiculous!

Maybe I don't understand what you mean by "income gap".

The wealth sharing since the 60's itself has decreased wages if your tlkig about income only.One only has to look at benefits not counted as wages to see the increase i compensation which alos drives prices higher. basically social negineeerig just add cost which makes real wages lower:IMO.I mean never have so many seen so much free stuff in this society.If welath sharers have their way their will be two income;the elite wealthy class and everyone else.

Do research on transfer of wealth.

Hard work and investing their money wisely.

You can't make them all the same, but wide disparity is not good.

I read that. I don't know where this person is coming from, but it isn't from a positon of reason. This person obvioulsy thinks businesses are evil.

Either that or a paid person to obfuscate and distract from the real issues.

Wide disparity between what groups? Different jobs have different job skill requirements, education requirements, etc.

I'm not following you at all.

A person who excells in their work, deserves more than one who just gets by.

The 59/41 ratio is definitely wrong, but the transfer of wealth en masse will cause societal unrest not seen in 100 years. The problem is INCEST. The execs of firm A are on firm B's board, and vice versa. Hence they act as an oligopoly would and artificially set ever-higher executive compensation levels unrelated to performance.

Example: Golden Parachute which rewards FAILURE. The Board wanted the CEO out, and now must pay him far more to LEAVE. Second, check out the rates of CEO pay increase by comparing corps who share Board members as mentioned above. Combine the rate increase, and you will notice they are mirror images. 100% INCEST.

I think this is an Obama administration plant. I know they have them to infiltrate forums etc, and spread the propaganda.

But, yipes, this one doesn't even make any sense. Certainly not doing them any favors, if that's what this is.
