Time to call a halt to fat cat excesses
Dear Editor
On 15th August, Channel 4 television reported on the salaries of company chiefs. It was staggering to hear how many millions of pounds are paid every year.
In one example, an individual was paid well over £4 million. It would take an average worker 195 years to match it. This was just one case of hundreds occurring regularly.
This money or wealth was created by the labour of workers and their families. This system is being justified as being right: it cannot be so.
Two people on the programme said they supported the payments and that they should continue.
The fairness, the justification, the morality of this system of wealth distribution must be changed. The sooner the better.
