New Zealand’s 8 million Dollar Salaries


For the most part the average working man/ woman will tolerate some pay difference, after all someone with a particular skill that is in short supply should be able to command a higher fee.
Problems arise when the difference between the lowest paid and the highest paid is so great that it is impossible to justify.
The desire to earn an obscene amount of money to display to your fellow man how clever or important you are is something that is in our human nature as is the desire of the less well-off to take that person to task about it
Throughout history there are examples of the elites of this world who felt entitled to more than what the average person would call a fair amount of the pie.
A classic case of what could happen and has happened in the past is the story of  Marie Antoinette the last queen of France before she lost her head in the revolution, the famous quote attributed to her when told that the peasants that were starving “let them eat cake”
The is an obvious lesson here of course for the 1% who have all the wealth .let more than some crumbs fall from the high table or risk losing your head


Go Nuts
