Yeah, and then all those fast food workers would have the capacity to take more goods off the market and leave less for the rest of us. Understand? Other people making more money means everyone else looses out.

The CEO had a brilliant idea and is making a ton of money from it. He is most likely reinvesting most of his earnings into his business and/or other businesses he thinks are prosperous.
The majority of McDonald's employees would spend that money on liquor and booze.

I wouldnt trust some burger flipper to run the company. The reason why CEO's make so much is two fold:
a) They are the public figure of ridicule. Their lives, like that of celebrities are closely monitored and tied to the company. Any fuck up done by the CEO is reflected to the company they serve.
b) They are responsible for the success of a company. Put that into perspective - imagine being responsible for a multi-billion dollar industry where your actions can make or break the company - where your actions determine if mr burger flipper can work or not. It's a lot of responsibility - thus the pay is high.
Any moron can flip a burger. I bet I could teach a monkey to do it with a cattle prod and a dozen bananas.

While I by no means want to put any sort of wage ceiling, it gets a bit ridiculous when one person is earning more dosh than some cities.

Its not like those guys just put all their money in a safe anyways.
>>55517834
nobody, obviously
I'm saying it's a ridiculous number and that if I had a say in anything nobody would earn that much
utterly disproportionate to the work he is doing, especially because mcdonalds is doing terribly and has been for several years now

Good luck convincing the Mac Jew to give up on 7.75 billion a year (if the number is accurate, which is highly unlikely)

I don't necessarily refute it, I just say you should accept national socialism then if you think like this, or at least find good sources to study up on it more, cause they did just that very thing and caused a great wealth for their people in a very short time.
Hitler accepted capitalism in the ideology, but regulated the profit to the companies thereby spreading the wealth to everyone under the bosses. No one was making 8 billion as the owner of a company under Hitler while their workers were making pennies, not if they didn't want to be shot.
And then the ceo won't keep the job and the board of directors will eliminate the position and, assuming robots are now cost effective, implement robots instead of their newly overpriced employees
In this scenario they now gain one customer, me, as I would love to eat at a mcdonalds where "people" aren't making my food

that minimum wage shit wasn't really part of my argument
however, if it's a job that needs to be done, even if it's trivial, menial work then nobody should earn so little for 8 hours of work daily when the money is obviously there but distributed /so/ disproportionally

>>55516273
Its a living wage. Regardless of the value of your labor if you work you should be paid a living wage. The minimum wage was meant to be going up years ago should be close to 20 an hour by now. But corporate corruption kept it the same way for 30 years despite these companies making more and more money.
And if youre making the case of why is a fast food worker making more than a lets say soldier or any of the other examples you can give then you gotta ask yourself. Why the hell is a soldier making that little money? Why is a nurse or EMT or firefighter making that little money despite their job being so demanding? Their wages should go up to.
It should be a big problem when the CEO's check is allowed to go up but his workers arent. Infact they only go down with the system we have now.

It's part of their contract. Same thing happens in sports. They bring in a player, he turns out to not produce as expected, they cut him and pay him according to the contract that was signed.
The companies are willing to sign those contracts that promise big bonuses if the contract is ended prematurely for the same reason they are willing to pay the salary.
Company has high demand for a skill -> very few people have that skill( low supply) -> price rises

If you dig a 20m hole for a construction company to say start with the plumbing and piping then couple it with the seemingly constant recessions and crashes from our deregulation causing prices of everything to go up in price, cost of living goes up, inflation. And the fact the if anything bad happens with the economy you can and will lose your savings account and be forced to go on government assistance and welfare while your rich boss bitches about how much of a freeloader you are. Then 8 bucks an hour in the "wealthiest country in the world" then thats just retarded.

Coming from the dumbest argument I've heard all day
Doesn't your sewer race of leftshits worship Steve jobs? Did he not provide value to apple? You realize the reason these people are paid this much is because a good CEO will bring in more value to the company than you pay them.
Just like why you don't pay a salesman the entirety of his sales, while likely paying them more than almost any position in a small business or branch of a large business, you pay a CEO in a similar fashion
In fact... (brace yourself) everyone is paid according to how much value they provide.
>mfw you retards are arguing about wages for like 1% of the population

>>55515128
Yeah, not sure why anyone is even debating.
The CEO of McDonald's actually only makes $7.3 million a year.
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-08-13/these-ceos-make-the-most-money-compared-with-their-workers
$7.3 million a year divided by 1.7 million employees, is $4.30 a year.
Which means, if they split their CEO pay, their pay would go from $14,000 a year, to $14,004 a year.

Nobody has told you that the poorest people in the west are among the richest in the world?

Bernie Sanders wants to raise minimum wage to $15/hr and raise federal taxes to +30% so we can be like his beloved successful Scandinavian socialist countries.

>The amount of money someone brings to a company from their labor is usually quantifiable if not then easily estimated.
That amount has increased many times over. Wages have not.

How has the value of flipping a burger increased many times over?
>more many than any one person needs
fuck off, I know I'll never make that kind of money but that doesn't mean I can dictate who can make what type of money
fucking statists

Increased productivity, ease of access, efficiency.
All workers are underpaid. Go shopping but demand to only pay half price for everything. That's what these companies are doing TO EVERYONE not just min wage earners and burger flippers.

>People don't NEED a fridge
>People don't NEED running water
Presented here are two arguments I've seen used to declare minimum wage unnecessary. There are numerous better arguments, but they're not relevant to what follows. If neither a fridge nor running water are things someone NEEDS, how can $250 million possibly fall short of what an individual needs?

And wages have been increasing almost every year for the past 100 years.
>All workers are underpaid
This is sort of correct but only slightly. Your work must produce profit for your employer so workers will always be paid slightly less than they produce. If you get paid more than you produce then there's no reason to keep you employed.
>Go shopping but demand to only pay half price for everything. That's what these companies are doing TO EVERYONE not just min wage earners and burger flippers.
No, you're wrong because they don't demand anything. They offer. And obviously they choose the person that's willing to do the job well for the lowest compensation, because why wouldn't they, that's how competition works.

Because you should not be paid according to what you NEED but according to what you produce.

If the government provided me with literally everything I "need" (and including luxuries like a fridge)-- and governments are increasingly going in these directions, I literally would not work. And many people already have taken this mindset. Communism has done this again and again. If people are just as well off working than not working than no one is going to work, and you're going to run out of money. It's already been happening and it's only getting worse.
