A Modest Essay on Extraordinary Paychecks

A Modest Essay on Extraordinary Paychecks

Here is a an essay on the vast disparity of incomes.  Compare the incomes of hedge fund managers to ordinary workers (or for an even greater contrast, a worker in a third world country) or even to the well paid, like the President or TV personalities, you will see what a vast amount of money Wall Street is raking in. This essay was sent to me by Public Citizen.  (http://www.citizen.org/Page.aspx?pid=183)
