oh well, somebody has to slave away for giant dividends, corporate jets, and golden parachutes to exist.
It's sad that I know FOR A FACT that an interior on some of those jets costs more than some people make in a lifetime. I mean how are we supposed to fly in our gulfstream without real wood interior, leather and flat screens? Places actually prohibit photography so their corporate clients can keep all the money they spend on aircraft extras under wraps so they can hide it under some line item budget.

Actually your state is not that far off form what MIT considers to be living wage.Also if you work for a company for more than 6 months and do not receive a pay increase either you or the company are doing something wrong.
Not everyone is going to have a "golden parachute" this is true and that may not be fair but that is life.If you want that so badly become a CEO.No matter what there will always be haves and have nots things will never be equal for all it simply is not possible.You either live in a free market society where you may or may not have wealth or you live in a closed society like the USSR where you are told what you can have based on your party status.
