In this article the author focuses on the problem of wealth concentration in the U.S. Commenting on the high amount of salaries received by executives, the author remarks, these executives get nearly three times the salary paid to the President of the U.S. According to him it raise the question at once whether any individual is worth any such sum, and also whether any individual ought to be willing to receive such a sum in these times of distress and suffering. The author says that stockholders are also contributing to this problem of wealth difference.
