contribution to society by an individual is limited - so fortunes should be limited for justice, so there is not overpay and underpay and the violence generated by that injustice - it doesnt stop a person getting fair reward for hardwork, creativity, innovation - it merely prevents robbery - stops a person getting excess reward for contribution - paying bill gates up to $10 million an hour is excessive - it causes superunderpay, super anger, super danger, starvation, prevents education of 90% of humanity, kills 1 in 50 humans every year from starvation and violence [war and crime] - it drops 90% of humanity to 10th-1000th of world av hrly pay [US$7500 - US$75 income a year] - ie extreme suffering, slavery, powerlessness, anger, putting all humanity in extreme danger [nuclear winter]
in a state of nature or equal opportunity, with equal tools & materials, the range of wealth created by individuals would not vary more than by a factor of about 10 - but pay range factor is 1 billion
