"Pay for S&P 500 chief executives rose by 7.7 per cent last year as packages at the US’s biggest companies keep increasing.

Median total pay for S&P bosses rose to $19mn last year. The jump in median chief executive pay was higher than a 7.2 per cent rise in 2023, according to Farient Advisors, a pay consultancy, and marked the quickest pace of growth since an 11.5 per cent gain in 2021.

Total pay for the broader American workforce increased 3.6 per cent in the 12 months that ended December 2024, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

“We’re still seeing executive pay increases above the inflationary rate as well as above typical rank-and-file employees,” said Eric Hoffmann, chief data officer at Farient Advisors."

New report from #ILO shows that since 2000 #WageInequality has decreased in 2/3 of countries—but the challenge remains. The lowest-paid 10% of workers earn just 0.5% of the global wage bill, while the top 10% take nearly 38%.

"homeless people need to quit being lazy and get jobs"

a lot of them do have jobs. the jobs don't pay enough for them afford a house or apartment. quit blaming the symptoms instead of the diseases, which are late stage capitalism and greed of corporations
