Equal income?

July 6, 2017 1:31pm CST
I read something today and they were talking about an equal income for all Americans. Are they considering this? What are your thoughts if they do?

That will never happen. Can you see a doctor making the same amount as a janitor?

Different jobs require a different level of skills and knowledge. High paying jobs require much higher level of intelligence and education. Definitely, those people who aim to get high paying jobs would go for courses with longer studies and more advanced lessons. The government cannot implement this kind of scheme because it simply not acceptable.

I agree but they have done many things that were unacceptable to citizens because they just don't care.

Well, that means no more student loans for kids who'd like to get high paying jobs.

I have not heard of this but I do not see how it would work anyways. Some jobs deserve more pay like nurses and doctors should be paid more than a cashier at McDonalds or Walmart. Now I will say that if two people work the same job, they should be paid the same unless one has been there longer. And I do think there are a lot of famous people who get paid way too much.

HAHAHA! NO! there is no way this will ever happen, some people earn more for being an expert in certain fields while others that wait tables make little money. I would not want every single person to make the same. Some people are slackers and some work hard.
