New data show that Canada’s inequality crisis is driven by both billionaire wealth and runaway housing costs. Without a meaningful fix, both democracy and economic growth will be distorted by entrenched interests.
Should everyone just be paid the same amount, whatever that amount but based on the job at hand? One job can set a set price that pays every worker the same? No one less and no one more?
I was just asking if that was a possible solution people would be interested in. Not trying to persuade or anything. But I do think that or something similar could potentially put people on the same playing field financially. Instead of having a set few billionaires.
Ahhh okay. It’s one of those things that has been debated for a long time. It’s kind of a Star Trek thing if you ask me. Captain Picard gets paid the same as Ensign Slacker from the lower decks (both 0). Well, except Ensign Slacker probably has a tiny apartment in NYC (when not on a tour of duty with the Enterprise) whereas Picard has his luxurious wine estate in the French countryside.

Are you asking or making a rhetorical point?
