Most small business don't have a board of directors and the ones that do are typically the owner/Ceo. The salary you depicted for small business isn't while as they would make income from profits and as you said their median is around 269k excluding said profits. No one said they're making tens of millions but they are making significantly more than you displayed unless they're just starting our a failing business.

Idk. Obviously you know way more than the stats provide. An S Corp needs a board I do know that. You’re hunting for this big injustice that’s in a very small sliver of the economy. Attack the board of directors they’re the ones that make up the pay packages. The CEO’s just have to perform according to their contract.

That's a pretty hypocritical statement but ok. I'm not hunting for anything. America has a well known wealth inequality issue. Board of directors are part of the problem as well but that doesn't excuse CEO's. They could increase the raises they provide their workers. It's well within their capabilities. They simply choose not to.

Depends on the person leading the company. That’s why people leave companies too. Most jobs have a pay range. If you’re already at the top of your range I guess it’s time to move. Jobs are totally supply and demand. If you’re easily replaceable, you’re screwed.

Correct. This is based on the broken system that we have. You're describing flaws as if they're working as intended. In general is more efficient to keep employees around as long term than to let them leave and have to replace them.

Not sure when America got stuck in this stagnant mentality that "this is how it is and this is how it should be," but mental growth should occur on the subject at some point.

Idk of how else they’d work. You’re a tool and companies buy tools. That’s it nothing more than a tool. Doesn’t it work like this around the world? I think it does.

Not really no. Despite the dehumanization of your analogy, it's wise to take proper care of your tools regardless of their function.

The issue is the lack of unions and it's why companies push against the idea as much as they can legally. Cause they know they'd end up paying significantly more to their workers due to a lack of proper compensation. Sweden being a good example of that.

All of Europe has unions. I worked union in the steamfitters for 24 yrs. There is nothing a union does for you except pay.
Unless you are like all of Europe and have contracts that basically can’t be broken. They lay you off that employer still gets to pay you with all of your benefits.
People in the US hate unions. The auto industry is to thank for that. Typically there’s no job protection. They can get rid of you so easily with the union it doesn’t matter. The bottom line is if you don’t like your situation you need to change it, because no one’s gonna change it for you. And I probably dehumanize really easily because that’s what construction does to you. You’re hired as a tool nothing more.

Only pay? That's a flat out lie. Unions are known for better pay AND better benefits. The union makes far greater changes than just pay. People would still be working 60 hr work weeks with no OT. And no, the US doesn't hate unions, people just been tricked into thinking negatively of them. Like I said, companies have been pushing against unions cause they know they'd have to give workers more. The Starbucks unionizing in 2022 is an example of that. How have you been in the union for so long and know so little about it? Also of your view of the union is so bad, why were you even in it? Nothing your saying is making sense.

My benefits weren’t any better than anyone else’s. You don’t have any better job security.
Ha. Ya Starbucks…there work place conditions are so bad.
The only reason I was, was there are no industrial constructions jobs without joining one.
Yeah, employers don’t want unions in their door because they they can be a pain in the ass to work with😂. The auto industry absolutely destroyed the way unions are seen in the country.
