That's stretching the analogy a bit; in today's economy, a great number of CEOs think that they deserve to be paid as if their impact was on par with Steve Jobs. If there were legislation to prevent a large Gini index at companies, Steve Jobs could have still been paid exorbitantly, if only his employee's compensation increased proportionally. And that's fair, because Steve Jobs wouldn't have gotten anywhere without excellent people to execute on his dreams.
- sokoloff 3y agoI don’t think it’s particularly stretching the analogy, unless you think it would be appropriate that Terrence Tao could only be taught as he was if the lowest 9th grader would be taught Algebra II.
- klyrs 3y agoI'm having trouble making sense of what you're trying to say but note that Tao was 9 years old and not grade 9. Even I knew a kid in high school who was taking university classes.
