In times of economic volatilitydo the wealthy fight to preserve the status quoas some rich become poor giving some underprivileged a chance to prosper?

A good hanging tends to focus the mind

 

Roy Bean

Justice of the Peace & Saloonkeeper

 

If an average Japanese top executive

receives about 3 times as much as average salaried employees

 

while British senior management

takes in about 39 times the average

 

is it in the best interest of shareholders or management

if American executives get more than 300 times

the average worker’s salary?

 

Have most revolts been instigated by some with less who want more

against those with more?

 

Any system produces winners and losers

 

If the gap between them gets too great

the losers will organize themselves politically

and seek to recast the existing system within nations and between them

 

Henry Kissinger
