    Right, be mad at someone for thinking that their job should pay their bills instead of the CEOs that hoard all the money.

        Where am I wrong? Genuinely curious.

        During the golden age of American economy, corporate tax rates were sometimes as high as 90%. This resulted in corporations giving back to their employees or investing in research in order to further their products. This allowed for the basic worker to pay their bills working just one “menial” job. CEOs and head of corps made a lot of money, but the gap was much smaller between exec and grunt.
