Honestly, I don't see that much different from a hollywood actress or NHL player being paid in millions. Which might be seen as a moral issue but a different one, of equal renumeration for work.
But it's important to point out that main source of income for B.G. (or any capitalist, for that matter) is not a reward for work, but rather reward from ownership of capital, which is essentially a share of economic decisions. It's pretty unclear to me why the society should reward ownership and not just work.
- Nevermark 5y agoSociety should reward good stewardship of owned resources, as well as good work.
- js8 5y agoStewardship is not ownership, though. A king, an absolute monarch, effectively owns the country, and his position is hereditary. A prime minister does not own the country, despite "being in charge", and it's not hereditary. People overwhelmingly prefer the latter system. I don't see why business (economic production) should be any different.
