Inequalities
A news marginal in view of yesterday's newspapers: revenue grows by Parmalat, the collection of Bondi is not moving. Enrico Bondi, the healer receives a salary of 550 thousand euro a year, which he does not get in the top 250 Italian managers. His fees guardagnano much, much more than him. Profumo, when he was CEO of Unicredit, said that he could live well with a penny of his salary. News
echoing finance are on the front instead that the bonuses on Wall Street millionaires are back, despite the air of crisis is not entirely closed.
As reflected on these issues is easy to be accused of hypocrisy and anti-neoliberal, and yet the evidence shows that these facts are not marginal.
I am not from a economic point of view: it was an Italian economist, Gini, to find an indicator of inequality and show that companies are moving more and grow are those where the index is neither too high nor too low.
economists are Lonson prestigious School of Economics, Wilkinson and Pichette, to show that the inequalities make the company more unhappy (the measure of the soul, Feltrinelli).
So the issue is not marginal, even without resorting to ethics - which would not be wrong sometimes - but stopping at the mere issue of economic and social development.
Yet it continues: The Gini index has increased steadily in the United States, democratic country par excellence, and has always been high in most oil-rich states. As if you understood that then, consumers pull the economy are those of large masses of people who are better. If you think
diffile law to impose a cap on the salaries millionaires, at least could be considered an indicator of social responsibility, a sort of corporate Gini index, to be advertised and put to the public: what can not the law, maybe I can consumers .....
