Never been lawman or lawmaker.

I agree with your proposal. I would make it illegal for any individual to be a billionaire. The maximum personal wealth of any individual would be fixed at 500 million. If they can't live on that, there are just not trying. Or they have to economise. Surplus wealth to be applied to socially desirable outcomes. For billionaires who claim they wouldn't have any motivation, I say, wait a minute, you always say you don't do it for the money, right? It's always the challenge, you say. So, here's your chance to prove it.

I don't know if I would classify it as a law, but I suppose a law would have to be made in order for it to happen. I would have an overhaul of our tax system. To many large loopholes for people with big wealth and tax lawyers. Too many forms also. I remember years ago going in to the post office at a military base I was stationed at overseas, and seeing a multitude of different types of forms that would be used for preparing your tax returns. A simplified tax system would be in order, in my opinion.
Guess I'd have to throw in government spending too. Too much of our tax dollars go to idiotic things.
Didn't mean to get all political.
I agree with your comment on CEOs. The people in the top of corporations made a god awful amount of money. Should they make so much when they cut corners on the employees who sometimes are barely getting by? I would think not.

Telling the TRUTH would be mandatory, and lying would have severe penalties, for all public officials and businesses/corporations!

I like that law! Crazy that CEOs make salaries hundreds of times more than their employees.

Mine would be an immediate ban on assault weapons in every state in the union. No one outside of the military or law enforcement needs weapons of war.

If for every million dollars of earnings one of these fat somebitches make someone else got $35k of it there would be no poverty.

Except the executives aren't really the problem. The truly privileged wouldn't lower themselves to do any work whatsoever.

Raise minimum wage for sure. The law I want is no religion in the schools.

1. That Congress had to pay into Social Security & have the exact same insurance, while in office, as their low income constituency.
2. term limits for all positions in Congress-2 terms & thats it.
3. any time there is no balanced budget, ALL members of the House & Senate are ineligible to run for a 2nd term.
4. "retirement" from political office means the paycheck stops & the retiree lives off savings & Social Security. Residual income from investments & political speaking are taxed & considered income, reducing Social Security & Medi-care benefits according to rule/law.

I could go on....

Get money out of politics

THIS!!!!

I wouldn't limit what someone can make, but I would make it a law that employees should make a certain percentage of what the CEO makes. It would have to be tinkered with of course, depending on the job within the company that the employee holds, but that would organically solve paying employees enough and not paying CEOs too much, I think.

you noticed that?

I think that is a great idea. It has been making the rounds on Facebook for months.

It's easy to say that as a worker, but if you were pushing to become a CEO, what would be the incentive to get there if your pay was capped?
