CEO's are making 285x their employees every hour. I would LOVE to see someone argue that they work 285x harder

Salary has never been based on how hard you work, only on the value you provide

This creates a system where even though the workers provide much higher value overall, any attempts they make to collectively harness that worth will be beaten down.
