Re: Let’s Cap CEO Pay
What makes the middle class so easy to fool?
Religion.
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
​
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

Re: Let’s Cap CEO Pay
If religion is what made the man so easy to fool, then how was he so easily fooled into religion?
The parts of that sentence have nothing do with each other. The premise and conclusion are faulty. Logically it is flawed and has no meaning.

Re: Let’s Cap CEO Pay
1. No but they do not have the huge disparities that we see in more religious countries like the US and Latin America. Using the Swiss as an example is flawed.
2. Commission a study.
3. Of course not. The Pope is a minor player in world society and politics.
