for the longest time, if one had a job, one could make it. not anymore. who had the power to change that? I'd wager it's the one's reaping the rewards from how things are now, with an ever tilted field. bought and paid for by the very rich, enacted by their puppets, and defended by...old dog.
You seem to operate under the assumption that it's a closed system, with a finite amount of money.

Understand that the rich will always get richer. Money begets money. But your problem is with CEOs who you believe are overpaid. So, let's get to the meat of it. Who do you believe should decide how much money an employee should be paid for his or her services?

Actually, a lot of money is now in a closed loop system, the financial world.
As for who decides the pay. I would imagine it is the same who always decided. The issue is why did the pay get skewed? How do we repair that? How did it get as it is, from where it was? I already said, above, how that is.
