Why? if the lowest ranked person in the company is only in charge of cleaning the toilets, would it then be fair to say the person that is in charge of a entire department with 200 people working there is only allowed to earn 5 times more??
Or what about the multi million dollar contract negotiater in the company, should he be given the message "Sorry dude, we pay our toilet cleaner $10 per hour, so we cannot pay you more than $50 per hour", go to our competition instead, I know their toilet cleaner is getting $50 per hour
I think minimum wages is bullshit, supply and demand would set the wages correct in the long term.
I think top taxes is bullshit too, why should someone pay 20% points more in tax than someone else just because he or she work harder or smarter? The tax payments is already higher, why would you pay a higher % too?
The more you make the less tax % should be paid.
That would make a stronger upper class with more buying / investment powers wich would eventually help people with a smaller income in form of more work, when there is more work, the salaries go up to keep the employees.
In conclusion.
There should not be a maximum wage, but a maximum tax instead.
