Why don’t we have a maximum wage? Asking that question is another way of asking why some people can rake in millions while others struggle to earn enough
I didn’t say anything about America, I think the concept would occur anywhere. As another said, robber barons are the real problem, and they do so through other financial vehicles/ means.
The remedy remains the same. There are countries where imposing it on the working class would not work because the working class would fill the streets.
My overall point is that to improve the conditions of the working class, other techniques would be more durable, and more safe, such as getting the hyper wealthy to pay their taxes, or getting laborers a greater stake in the profits of the company where they work.

I’ll agree to that sure.

Oh I agree this puts a lot of faith in the government when workers are perfectly capable of owning the factory they work in.
