It seems to me that remuneration at the top management needs to be reduced back to where it once was, when multiples of the average employee wage was not extreme. Let the money to all employees be increased substantially using freed up capital, be they public or private sector.

Every person is to be valued, and each will contribute in ways that improve the community in which they live with the right investment and encouragement.
