With wealth inequality and billionaire control over American society growing ever more obscene, it’s well past time to implement a maximum wage limit.

Wealth cap
Coupled to a highly progressive tax, a wealth floor, and UBI, and we got something really cooking!
As someone once suggested a while ago, we just cap wealth at $999 million. Every dollar above that goes to building schools and hospitals. When you reach this point, you get a plaque that says “I won capitalism” and we name a dog park after you.
I also believe in the 999 rule! When I was a kid, I would play Zelda games and in those games the maximum number of rupees you can have is often 999. You can’t collect any more than that. Sure, you can try to put it in your pocket but it just disappears into the void. In that game, as in life, I never really needed to have any more than 999 at one time. Very rarely would I go out and spend all of my rupees.
Yeah this is the only way
Billionaires get cash by taking debt out against their giant stock positons. Not wages.
They can have a wage but I think it should be legally capped at 10 times the lowest paid person in the company
