I think we all long for the days where the boss made a dollar and we made a dime. That's a 10:1 ratio. With the current gap between CEO and worker it's more like boss made forty dollars and I made a dime.

The ratio with that phrase is 4000:1 math checks out!

And that's probably not taking into account that the really low-paid workers at highly-paid job sites, like tech company offices, are contractors (W-2 employees of a separate company with a lower payscale).

Think about it.

Who is a riot going to actually hurt?

How is shooting a dozen cops going to change anything?

It's 2026 and the rules have changed. What worked in 1926 isn't going to work today.

Hey, maybe you can get people so upset that they call a Constitutional Convention. I'm sure the places that voted for Trump will be all in on reform
