Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?
100%? 500%?
Try 1,085%
Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

A McDonald’s line cook makes about 100 to 250 burgers per hour. That’s about $500 to $1,250 in revenue.
They get paid $13 for that, roughly 1% to 2% of the revenue they created.

All the contented leaders, from both parties, have refused for 40years to #increasetheminimumwage or SS benefits. In fact, they have allowed Reagan’s tax on SS to remain law. They

As I keep saying, the U.S. needs to go back to a pre-1980 tax rate. Only with loopholes for the rich plugged.
An international effort so they can't run to tax havens. Or something. Anyone got any ideas?
