US study lays bare extreme pay-ratio problem

The research shows otherwise. That's the whole point. Try and catch up!

You chose the very industry that you shouldn't. That industry refers to discrimination and monopsony power.

 

oh no the research agree with me!!

 

how does an industry refer to monopsony?? Is that english??

 

I said assuming a free market.

 

You chose an industry that shows the consequences of labour market flexibility: racism and monopsony.

Well done!

 

assuming a free market you have correct payment not over or under payment! Do you understand?

 

You chose an industry where the research shows otherwise. As I said, weird choice!

 

All law relies on the threat of violence. Even parking tickets.

 

A parking ticket is an attempt to react to property rights.

 

Parking tickets, like all laws, are enforced with the threat of violent death.

 

You don't seem to care about property rights.

 

On what do you base that conclusion?

 

Are you serious? Parking tickets are a fine and protection of property rights.

 

What happens if you refuse to pay the fine?

 

Actually trespassing.

Again, actually trespassing

Fortunately I pay my taxes, so I'm not stealing.

Besides I pay for my water, electricity, cable, etc. So I'm not sure why taxes are needed for these things.

I pay for the infrastructure I use.

 

Infrastructure? I'm not sure what you mean, other than roads.

 

It's not voluntary. It is imposed by violence. You know this.

 

Are you referring to statues?

 

If you sat there through the movie and they caught you and called the cops, you would be charged with everything they could charge you with, including theft of services.

Same.

How nice for you. I didn't say otherwise. Read it again.

You didn't pay for the initial projects to set up the infrastructure. You pay for ongoing services.

Not for the original construction. Just for ongoing use.

Roads
Bridges
Development of water sources (reservoirs, rivers, etc.) and delivery to your street.
Sewer systems
Police
Fire departments
Prisons
Rail and subway systems
Airports
Etc.

 

So if we have to have taxes, then these are the only things that are legitimate reasons to tax?

 

Don't you think that question is just a little bit ridiculous?

 

No. Why would you say that?

 

Military?

 

Congressional and presidential salaries?

 

Etc.
