Neither is on the right track of the above question.
High taxes are not the answer you end up like
Greece where everyone hides the money
A low tax system is not a fair system her is why.
If it were based on a 10% flat tax for example it
means a guy making a million pays a 100 thousand
a guy making a thousand pay a hundred.

the rich guy gets 900 thousand to play with
the poor guy gets 900 dollars to keep.

we need to put an end to people being on cereal boxes
and getting millions and we need to limit the very top of
the executive chain and we do that by percentage.
wages for some positions are out of whack and they
must be corrected

Pretty much, we just need a much saner system. How about something like the top salary in the country being equal to 4 or 5 times the average salary?

If it is, then it looks like Communism might be a good thing. :) Since when did Communism have anything to do with salary structure?

Communists dictate salary structures in their central planning committees. There is no connection between renumeration and performance in a Communist system.
