10 Highest Paid CEOs in the World in 2019

Taxing the ultra wealthy to fund the country that made them wealthy is not socialism. You should probably go back to high school and retake your governments class.

Sounds like you excelled in “governments” class, dipshit.

I didn’t realize that the government, general population, or however else you want to define the ‘country’, gave any of the wealthy a brain and tenacity. But this sounds like boilerplate Rush or Sean, of courrrssse, clearly this is the ranting of a right-wing automaton.

Want to lump small-town self-made people worth “4-5 million” in with the Silicon Valley or Wall St croney crowd...seriously, you’re a f*ckin genius. Eat sh*t.

Stiff inheritance taxes on values over 4-5 million are going to be absolutely necessary to prevent the planet from being owned by 10 people. Use the money to fund schools, public roads, medical care, and social security. You know, all the things to billionaires get for free despite paying almost nothing.

Haven't you realize that tax money are not use to fund anything you idiot? Everything is financed with debt (have you ever heard the words Munis?) and they pay the old debt with new ones. that's why money depreciate in the first place (to pay the old debt cheaper)..

When you tax business and rich, they will find the way to avoid that, guess how? Well using debt too (tax free). Just buy a undervalue assets and refinance that asset at market value. Taxing inheritance is just political demagoguery from rich politicians to attract ignorant like you.

Firefighters don't step on the hose. So, They (politicians) will always create loopholes.

Taxing the ultra wealthy to fund the country that made them wealthy is not socialism. You should probably go back to high school and retake your governments class. Socialism is defined as publically owning the means of production in some degree. Taxes aren't socialism. I don't generally support raising taxes on the middle and lower classes. We should be deriving most of our tax dollars from these robber barons. Turn off Rush and Alex and grow up.

You can't just call anything you don't like socialism. But I'll take your statement as supporting a oligarchy. Maybe you'll realize I'm right when you're living in your GoogleHome driving on TeslaRoads and communicating exclusively through your Facebook ISP.

Supporting billionaires getting richer is pathetic on a level I can't even begin to describe. How stupid do you have to be to walk into a voting booth, vote against your best interests, and walk out with righteous indignation because "we really stuck it to those damn socialists".

No country in history has made a individual rich. The Individuals are the ones that make a country rich! The Founding fathers understood this and that's why the US has been so successful. But the US will go down if they start to adopt the socialist bullshit.

Between 1865-1933, During this period of near-absolute hegemony of the Republican Party, the country experienced a greatest economic expansion ever. High tariffs (under Republican protectionist policy) allowed American industry to develop without foreign competition; although the enormous size of the domestic market was almost equal to the size of the market formed by the rest of the world at the time. The state was barely involved in the economy (the American economy at the time was probably the most liberated economy in human history); taxes were the lowest in the world, almost non-existent regulations, and there were no major companies in the hands of the state.

And if you think that a bureaucrat will lower the effective tax rate to the rich, then you are living in your own world. They are rich too.

Fact. 1000% increase in CEO pay from 1978 to 2018. If that’s not “grown out of hand” for you then thats your opinion, which you are entitled to. And that isn’t coming from more productivity either.

the avg worker not so lucky. 12% during same period.

It is true that Rich guys always go ahead. However, that doesn't means that the rest are left behind. It's nature brother. Go to Miami Beach and give some Crum to birds. You'll find out that out 30 birds, only 3 or 4 birds will eat 80% of the Crum..

The problem is the Gov, not the market. Its the Gov the one who has the money monopoly and are the one who devalued money the money on purpose to pay old debt.

CEO makes that money because ASSET APPRECIATION. The right thing to do is to give every worker company shares! Like Google, Microsoft, Apple, Ford etc did in the old days..

For example, every 2 years in the company, you will get 500 or 1000 shares.

Figured a deflection was all you got. I’m a “millennial,” but nice try at being hip.
