    If you contribute to the profit, you should get a fair share of the profit. And not some pennies while those higher in the hierachy reap most of the profit for themselves.

        I think it boils down to asking what the purpose of a company is. In my opinion, a company should be a vehicle to sustain and enhance the lives of all employed by it. Your paycheck should be your minimum compensation, with windfall profits mostly split amongst the employees so that the maximum number of contributors benefit from it.

        I’m ok with the idea of there being a sliding scale within reason because I understand that the company leadership holds a lot of the legal liability, but the CEO getting a yacht and the desk clerk getting a candy bar just doesn’t really cut it.
