| Message | No single person deserves to exploit their workers to an unlimited degree. No single person works hard enough to justify being a multi-millionaire. Along the line, you will see an unending list of oppressed workers that were stepped on for this to even be possible. For our just society, I would expect more and I would expect equity. A high national maximum wage that can be negotiated between government and corporations would be the most just option for our nation. |

| Message | An example of what this may look like can be found here: https://www.cnn.com/2019/09/25/business/gravity-increases-employee-minimum-salary-to-70k-trnd/index.html We aren't saying the cap should be 70k USD equivalent in RUT, but we're saying a cap would be beneficial in our society. |
