Income is absolutely not proportional to harder work at all, not sure what is your point.

- omginternets 10y agoHis point, I think, is more general: there is a strong underlying assumption that inequality is inherently bad. This assumption is often lacking in nuance, even for a progressive like myself. Excessive inequality is undoubtedly bad. Debating quality vs quantity is a very different beast indeed. To be fair, people might mean "excessive income inequality" and just shorten it to "income inequality", but I've found this to be less and less true in recent years.
