david brooks is the undisputed champion of writing entire columns that can be destroyed with one statistic:
in the 1950s, ceos made *20* times more than their median employees. last year, the average s&p 500 CEO made *287* times their median worker pay.
Over the past few years wages for workers toward the bottom of the income stream have been rising faster than wages for those toward the top. If the bosses have the workers by the throat, how can this be happening?
