Today in the US, CEOs make 100 to 200 times their average workers - they have no shame!
The US is today in GREAT danger of social instability because the wealth gap is the greatest in US history and the highest in the 1st world (or developed countries) !!!!!! Look that up and see why "RICH" really is a BAD word. Maybe it was NOT in OUR day, but times have changed for the MUCH worse. Sorry! Please be aware!
