There has always been a correlation with crime and unemployment/poverty.

What idiotic take do I have in this thread?
It's just your general disposition, but in thos thread specifically, that CEO and other management pay and wealth disparity isn't a big deal

Why is it a big deal?
How does their pay affect you?

Has anyone argued they shouldn't be compensated well?

If regularly poisoning customers doesn't shut down Chipotle, I'm not sure anything will.

Answer the question.

So answer who decides what is enough and how do you get to be the decision maker.

when is it enough money?

They expanded rapidly and kept their "buy local ingredients" requirement. And didn't look after quality of suppliers very well.
I hope those days are behind them. Their restaurants always seem every bit as busy and packed as the local Chick Fil A. But I personally haven't been to Chipotle in years. There are better options near me.

So quit your bitchin.” Not sure you can compare the poor of the richest/most powerful country in the world to the poor of third world nations.
Not a single person in this country "scrapes by" in life. Our "poor" live better than the majority of people on this planet.
Not sure there’s really anywhere to go with this argument if it’s your true belief that not a single person in this country scrapes by.

Everyone, consumers, shareholders, etc.
It's bullshite that we let CEO's get away with giving themselves huge raises (queue Roger ThEy wOrK fOr ThE BoArD) for years while wages stagnated, pensions disappeared, 401k contributions dwindled, dividends were cut, etc.
How do we fix that? That's a hard question that can't be answered on a message board in 5 minutes. But people stanning for a continued increase in wealth disparity is insane l. It's like arguing that more poor people is a good thing.

It's not a belief. It's a fact.
Get out of the country a bit. It will give you some perspective.

It's like you think "wealth" is just one big pie, and the more the rich have the less you do.

Not wanting to lift people out of poverty is a weird belief. It helps everyone.
We can debate the vehicle to do it or if it's even really possible at this point, but just saying frick em does no one any good

How many CEOs have unilaterally given themselves raises?

You must have me confused with the raise the minimum wage people.

Knew that fourth grade counterpoint was coming.
I feel for the mentally challenged and physically disabled. Those people need to be supported. I dont feel anything for those unwilling to better themselves, and still bitch about their circumstances.
The key to a better life is individual, not collective. If you struggle, get an education, learn a trade, move to another location...

I don't believe that at all, but you are going to warp your belief of what I say because you've already predecided you don't like my opinion.

quote:Sure. Let’s do it. Either plan. Or a combination of those plans. But in the end, the left and the right only want to keep those people poor. So, nothing of substance will ever be done.
Is a better plan to keep promoting people through government dictated wages or putting a plan in place where people have skills and training to the point min wage isn't required? Raising the min wage just keeps the 2% of Americans who earn that or less, poor and with no skills.
