I’d zero out corporate taxes for every company that maintains a N to 1 ratio between the top compensation and lowest compensation. Then raise corporate taxes where not maintained. It’s not incentive to “help”, these people work. It’s incentive to value.

When Napoleon the old boar gained wealth and power the rules changed. Was it always there in Napoleon‘s heart or did the power corrupt? Does it make a difference? The opportunity to prey on the weak is an itch that the rich can’t help but scratch.
