CEO pay is up 1,094% since 1978, while worker pay is up just 26%.

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

This is wonderful news, I have always wanted to see this happen. The US "department of defense" has never been primarily about defense; it is a euphemism for an institution that is mostly focused on wars of imperial aggression. At least now there is no pretending otherwise.
