I am not just talking about the janitor. I am also talking about the teachers, doctors, lawyers, translators, etc... Heck even most phd's and doctorates don't make nearly the salary of the CEO. Sure education makes you more likely to have a higher income but the CEO's income is in no way proportional to the amount of money they make. It's not even just 1 CEO vs 1 99% and below its the CEO against the 400 plus people he makes more money than combined. I don't think you can honestly work hard enough or be educated enough to deserve to have that kind of money. Especially when many of those 400 have a better or comparable education and work ethic to the CEO!!

  • You're talking about 400 or so CEOs, but there are tens of thousands of CEOs who make fairly normal sensible wages. Sure, if you take a tiny sample group out of the whole lot you can alter the perception of them.

  • Sure most CEO's don't make the really big figures. Most of their salaries seem within reason. However many of them probably make more than you think with company write offs and such. My millionaire grandma does the same thing. Although CEO's are just one example of this, using a tiny group (not really a sample) is the entire point. In America a very, very small amount of the population wields most of the wealth. Not just base income but things that can be written off as well. I agree most of the population won't have the gross amounts of wealth that only the very few have.
