Wait until you find out how far the pay of those rich assholes goes when you spread it around!
There are good arguments to be made for unionization. That some people make more - sometimes substantially more - isn't always one of them. Certainly trying to stoke anger might not always be the best of all available ways to win over people trying to be thoughtful.
- memmcgee 7y agoExecutive salaries aren't the same thing as the surplus value extracted from your labor. If that was spread equally, each employee would make considerably more.
- icelancer 7y agoSurplus value extracted from labor is the literal definition of why you hire employees. If there wasn't surplus value, you wouldn't do it.

- Kalium 7y agoYes, like raising wages. Big piles of money tend to turn into surprisingly small ones when spread out across big piles of people. You'll have to pardon me if I'm reluctant to take my economics lessons from a linguist.

- UncleMeat 7y agoGoogle's annual profit is something like 100,000 dollars per employee. Not exactly a small pile.
- qaq 7y agoand RSUs of employees reflect that. start making that 100K into something smaller and your total comp will start to decrease.
