minus-squareAnother Person @lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·10 months agoYou can also raise the bottom to make that ratio reach the top…
minus-squareSteeve@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up9·10 months agoYou’re not really all that familiar with how ratios work are you lol
minus-squareScrewthehole@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down4·10 months agoSure I am. If employees made $90/hr the ratio would be significantly improved. It’s not the ratio that’s the actual problem here. You get that right?
minus-squareSteeve@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up4·10 months ago That’s just bringing down the top without helping anyone. Need to lift from the bottom instead What in the fuck does “lifting from the bottom” mean to you if raising employee wages isn’t it. Lift from the bottom, pull from the top. The ratio is the actual problem here. You get that right?
minus-squareScrewthehole@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down4·edit-210 months agoThey were talking about reducing ceo pay, which who cares? It’s the workers that need the boost. Go back to reddit you jerk
minus-squareJamesFire@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·10 months agoReduce CEO pay… to increase worker pay Damn, that was hard.
minus-squareSteeve@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down1·10 months agoRaising wages isn’t a boost? The hell are you talking about
minus-squareScrewthehole@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down2·10 months agoYou need some reading lessons. MAYBE THIS WILL HELP? THE GUY SAID CEO PAY IS TOO HIGH. WHO GIVES A FUCK AS LONG AS WORKERS EARN ENOUGH MONEY?
minus-squareSteeve@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 months agoLol you’re trolling right? CEO pay/4 > CEO pay/200 You get that right?
minus-squareScrewthehole@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·10 months agoOh my fucking God. What do you think we are talking about here? Guy said lower ceo pay to increase the ratio. Pay ceo 400,000, workers wages stay the same. How the fuck does that help? Pay ceo 15 million and pay workers 485,000. Same ratio. Now we got somewhere. People who want to enforce equality by imposing a ceiling are stupid. Impose equality by raising the floor. Who gives a fuck about the ceiling?
