Nowhere on that page did I see a chart showing the dramatic increase in CEO pay since 1950. The money is still there, it just going to the top.

Are you saying the CEOs are solely responsible for this productivity gain?

There’s a whole section about redistributing executive pay.

Maybe you should look harder.

> If the median worker isn't responsible for the increased productivity, are they entitled to a share of the work of other people?

I saw this as an argument against profit. If you changed 'the median worker' to 'the capitalist', it might show up in 'The Communist Manifesto'.
