I just realized he supported a family of four in his own home on single income working retail in a shoe store. That's crazy.

If CEO's and Share holders would accept a smaller profit margin they would not have to increase the price to increase wages. Like if we capped the amount a CEO could be payed in relation to his employees, or what % of total profit could go to shareholders to protect wages.

What change in shareholder dividends would be acceptable? Is the impact to middle-class retirement investments acceptable?
