He’s saying billionaires shouldn’t exist (which is true) and that in the 50s — the time MAGA supporters claim America was great — there was a policy where the maximum CEO salary was 10 times that of the lowest-paid employee. This is reasonable. He’s not saying he thinks the 50s were great.
And I'm saying capitalist shouldn't exist and we shouldn't be thinking that the 50s was great when capitalists were still doing capitalist stuff I mean they're just 20 years off of antitrust legislation and the Great depression.
He didn’t say he thinks the 50s were great. He said he heard people saying America was great in the 1950s. It’s a reference to MAGA supporters, suggesting even they should agree with this kind of policy. No one here is saying the 50s were great.
That response is not relevant to the question of pay for CEOs. CEOs receive way more than money. They have influence among other CEOs and politicians. A valuable good which exceeds the value of money. It’s also an intangible income that is tax free. But only if a person reaches CEO class
