90% of Japanese people have some kind of insurance. Costs are incredibly low with or without it.

I think you misunderstood what I said. Insurance has to raise the price of a good, as an insurance provider requires funding to exist. Even a public system that does not seek to profit still has administration cost. You are adding a third party to the typical buyer-seller transaction.

Obviously health care is cheaper in Japan than in the US, that's not what I'm saying.

  1. Insurance (private or public) raises the cost of goods and services by introducing a third party to the transaction.
  2. Goods and services that people consider indispensable are generally inelastic, meaning higher prices do not impact demand.


Health care would be an example of both, so you end up getting really high prices. Most countries address this issue (in very different ways!) but the farthest the US has gone is Medicaid and Medicare which only subsidize our expensive system without fixing the cost issue.

What exactly constitutes a "free market"?

The key ingredients of economic freedom are personal choice, voluntary exchange, freedom to compete in markets, and protection of person and property. When governments substitute taxes, government expenditures, and regulations for personal choice, voluntary exchange, and market coordination, they reduce economic freedom.
https://www.econlib.org/library/Enc/EconomicFreedom.html

As a wise man once said: "economic freedom is a necessary, but not sufficient condition for political freedom to exist." It is not a coincidence that the nations with the most political freedom in the world also happen to have market economies.

your only examples are massive global corps. most people are employed by medium sized business.

even there the difference is criminal

As I've said multiple times, the people running those medium sized companies don't get as much compensation as the people running massive global corps, meaning my point remains true. It wouldn't matter if you divided billions of dollars among hundreds of thousands of workers or millions among thousands, lower CEO pay would not positively impact workers because the amount spent on them is actually very small.

Companies pay a market rate to get as good a CEO as they can to make sure they are successful, which is what actually impacts workers wages.

Seems like it makes a great argument not to compromise with conservative economic policy and pass tax code regulation thats as stringent as possible.

There was no compromise, it was a campaign promise from Bill Clinton to limit CEO pay. Company performance based compensation was meant to be a fairer system where they would have to earn their money, but when CEO pay increased under that system they kept whining anyway.

Frolex posted...
We're talking about the level of growth in CEO wages contrasted with those of workers. If the real wages for the working class has massively increased in turn, that wouldnt be a problem. The issue isn't in just comparing the pay of a CEO to one worker.

There's no particular reason why a worker, who could be anyone in any type of position, would have wage increases at the same rate as someone who runs a massive company with hundreds of thousands of employees. A more reasonable expectation is that worker compensation should keep pace with productivity growth, and it is.

Frolex posted...
No one's saying average standard of living is lower than it was 60 years ago. But they have gone up in spite of growing economic inequality.

The US has higher wages, lower unemployment and higher GDP growth than nations that have "solved" inequality in Europe. CEO pay is very insignificant compared to both the revenue their companies bring in and the money they spend on worker compensation. It has zero negative impact on any of our lives. Making someone else poorer does not make you richer which is why inequality is a useless statistic out of context.

Unfortunately there are a tad bit more than 2 companies with CEOs, so sorry for the lack of astonishment over "large number divided by 2.1 million is a small number, therefore argument over sheeple"

ANY fucking CEO compensation divided up by the workforce is going to result in a low number, you have missed the point by a mile. A smaller company also means less CEO pay and the end result remains the same.

You can take a company with tons of revenue, high CEO compensation and relatively few employees like Chevron and you'll find the exact same thing, CEO pay has no impact on average wages.

Sit. Down.
