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

The thing about most mega rich people is they don’t earn wages. So this wouldn’t affect them.
Came here to say this. They’re poor, see how much their salaries are? Just a million, which they reinvest into the company for another share of 1% of their 3 trillion dollar company… that they control, and fire 20k employees to get back 50 million in just a week for their share…
Semantics. “Max income law”
Any income over $300,000 per year goes to the State to cover programs to eradicate poverty. Easy.
Ok so then once you hit $300k in income you should stop working? That sounds like a great way to have a shortage of working necessary skilled labor eg surgeons and lawyers who stop working after a few months every year.
My buddy is a spinal surgeon. He would stop working by May and his area would have no spinal surgeons for more than half the year under your suggestion.
That’s how you get a bunch of great Cuban surgeons
No, you don’t unless you live in a country whose medical technology is still decades behind the standards of the developed world. Your average Cuban doctor has no experience with the robotic surgery tools we have now.
that would kill lotteries
Why should I care? There’s no inherent reason lotteries deserve to exist. There are several reasons they shouldn’t exist.
gambling is fun
Lotteries are hardly gambling. You’re going to loose, statistically
Statistically, this applies to all other forms of gambling as well. The house almost always wins.
There are gambling where there is no house
The ‘house’ in gambling terms is the establishment in which you are gambling. It’s usually not an actual house.
Darn
Semantics. We’ll change the wording to “assets controlled”.
