On $300,000 a Year Salary Caps to Level the Economic Playing Field

I don’t hate people who succeed. By all means, succeed, everyone should for success, but if only the rich are successful, then we haven’t achieved maximum success. When people who work for the rich are also as happy as the rich that means a greater happiness has been achieved. If we leave behind that deserve more, it causes a ripple effect, magnifying unhappiness throughout the nation, and world. I understand that riches don’t always equate to happiness, but when families don’t have enough money, it ends up putting stress on them, and often breaks them up. Truly, money must be coordinated with happiness at least a little. Rich people can suffer from depression. And, I am aware that all the money in the world can’t buy happiness. Additionally, I am not for raising the minimum wage. However, in order to make the wealth redistribution happen, it would require effort on the part of the state to ensure that nobody is making more than $300,000 a year.

The big question some may have is: Why?

I believe that there is nothing any human being should be able to do and to earn more than $300,000 a year for it. Hopefully, demand alone would then change the scale of our economy and prevent the devaluation of the dollar. Really, bread should cost 5 cents a loaf. The higher prices get, the more people can’t do the necessary math, such that I am trying to prevent people from being sloppy with money.

For leveling the financial playing field, I do not want to be accused of jealousy. Naturally, some will be able to make more than others, and naturally some will be able to spend more wisely than others. This does not bother me. I am not jealous of how much money the rich have. For all I know, I may be rich in my generation simply because my family has no unpaid debts.

What bothers me is the greed of the oligarchy of capitalists. A part of the reason I believe that the $300,000 rule is good is because it will take the wind out of the sails of the greedy. People should work because they want to work, out of zest for their career, and not for the sake of earning more money. I was told, “Go to school for education, not for the money you might get.” It will make room for smaller companies that currently aren’t able to crack into the terse economic crust, giving them a chance. Truly, this oligarchy has prevented the fruition of some really good business ideas.

What I have is not envy of the rich. It is altruistic desire. Envy is far closer to covetousness than plain old desire. And, my desire is altruistic as I have no business in mind that I want to start, only wishing to level the playing field in order that competition should be fair for aspiring entrepreneurs. As far as the self and selflessness debate goes, I do believe that there can be self in altruism. For example, sometimes it is wise to conserve one’s own self, such that he or she will be able to give more at a later date.

Marijuana

The greatest challenge to the world's future is marijuana. Rabbi, we talk of schools as what separates Judaism as a movement. Marijuana undo's education, lowers IQ and damages young developing minds among many other things that are cited in a .gov article on the web. I am very afraid of this plant because its users can see nothing wrong with it, which is probably a combination of addiction and poor judgement. As I write this, more young adults smoke this kind of dope than cigarettes, and they are also proving themselves unable to do necessities, such keep a job. This drug, and the poor judgment caused by it which leads others to harder drugs is in my opinion the holocaust of this generation. I consider it very fearful because I believe that there is nothing more important than the mind. Our large intellectual brains are what makes us special as a species, more than anything else. Look to birds for flight. For speed look to cheetahs. But, for intelligence look to humans.
