“average top CEO compensation was $15.6 million in 2021, up 9.8% since 2020. In 2021, the ratio of CEO-to-typical-worker compensation was 399-to-1 under the realized measure of CEO pay; that is up from 366-to-1 in 2020 and a big increase from 20-to-1 in 1965 and 59-to-1 in 1989”
properly uses socialism
You’re describing privately-held companies paying their employees well, not socialism.
No, they are describing a government that enforces and enhances labor rights and protections.
Right, but the hypothetical person this person is talking to fires back with “that Nordic country doesn’t count cause that’s socialism”
I’m a Florida native so I’ve had this conversation with someone, and they’re implying the reason why burgers aren’t $20 is because of some weird centralized control of prices while also conflating social programs with socialism (and not the economic system)
