I also think that many people in college shouldn't be there and should be learning a trade. I think learning a trade is a very good thing and paying a fair wage is just the right thing to do.
This is most likely true but in America there isn't a good apprentice system set up to teach skilled trades. I lived in Germany for a few years and my German girlfriend's father is a shoemaker so I'm familiar with their system. It requires 3 years training/apprenticeship and passing exams before you are allowed to work in the trade. 7 years of experience is required to open your own shop. While this may inhibit those with lots of natural talent, you are almost guaranteed to receive a quality product or service. Your bread will taste good, your clothes will be repaired properly, and your house will be well constructed. You never have to worry that the person doing the work is untrained and was standing in a parking lot looking for day-labor a few hours earlier.
American CEO's aren't greedy
^^^ I agree except for the last part. I am starting a business to own it. Hopefully one day I will be fully vertical and build me a nice business that my daughter can run and then maybe hers kids.
America is truly unique in the amount that CEOs make. Compare an American CEO to a Japanese CEO. It's truly ridiculous how greedy American CEOs are.
American CEO's aren't greedy, if you don't like it, buy their stock, get on their board of directors, and oust their CEO... Or run another company like them, same industry, and be more competitive... no one is saying you can't...
Well that is what is great about America, you can do those things.
