That isn't the argument. The argument is that they should be paid a living wage, not that they should be paid more than anybody else.

Although, what does a corporate lawyer, wall street gambler, CEO, or congressman really contribute to society? Except stimulating the therapy industry with all the kids they fuck?

They are negative contributors because they hoard money. Other people actually contribute to the economy by spending money.

Oh, yeah, and every 10 years the markets crash because they've managed to repeal banking regulations or have accumulated too much risk to survive a significant downturn. Then the federal government bails them out?
