So you're glad you're making more than the average American?

Kind of hypocritical to talk about income inequality when your very job satisfaction is based on it.


We could easily solve this problem.

All income above the mean confiscated and given to all persons making below the mean. Nice, clean, one-size income fits all.

Everyone gets the same amount regardless of how hard we work. I think I'll just watch reruns of CSI at night instead of writing code 'til 2am.

It would sure screw things up Las Vegas, though. If you hit the Megamillions, sorry. It all goes to other people who weren't so lucky!

Yes I am, and I should also be taxed more than the average American.

>Kind of hypocritical to talk about income inequality when your very job satisfaction is based on it.

No, not in the slightest.

>Or do you as a consultant think it's unfair that you should be making more than a clerk at Macy's?

Once again, tax me.
