Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act

[Bernard]

Seems fair enough on the face of it. If a corporation can afford to pay it's CEO 2000 times what it's average workers make, they should be able to afford higher taxes. I wonder if it really would do anything to help the average worker, though. I'm sure big corporations would find another way to rig things. Capitalism is systemically flawed and I think it's going to take more than this bill to fix things. I suppose it's a start.

Capitalism is the worst form of economic organization. Except for all the rest that have ever been tried.

This is probably a good messaging bill for the Dems though.
