It's pretty simple, the fundamental belief is that Murray Edwards does not personally bring 2000x as much value to society at I do. Maybe his assets and employees cumulatively do bring that much value, but he is personally benefiting at that level.
Our system currently rewards him 2000x more than I am rewarded, so adjustments need to be made, and the government is making those adjustments.
As I've said before you also shouldn't look at % of income, you should look at % of disposable income. maybe 10% of my income is truely disposable, after I maintain a typical Canadian standard of living. While 99% of Murray Edwards income is disposable, after maintaining a high Canadian standard of living.
