Because it hurts the welfare of this country...
Think about that for a minute. How has the fact that, for example, Warren Buffet being a billionaire affected your individual welfare?

How? Even Warren Buffet will tell you he's making too much money. In what universe is an human worth $10, $50, $100 million per year? And yet that's what some actors, athletes and CEOs are making......its nuts. And you're telling me that's reasonable? Even if they shit gold bricks, its not reasonable.

And how does it effect me? The pie is only so big.........if upper mgmt and shareholders are taking the lion share of the revenue, there is less left over for the average worker. That's how it screws me.

Does his wealth represent lost opportunities? Could you think of "better" ways to spend his money than whatever Buffet himself could think of? Maybe on universal health care, better education, or a Tesla in every garage?

I could care less how Buffet spends his money...........my issue is with these crazy and exorbitant salaries........not how the Marie Antoinettes spend their money.

Think about why you think Buffet's billions SHOULD be your business in the first place. Because if that's the case, then who is to say that your money is anyone else's business other than your own?

Once again...........you've missed the point.
