To fix the economy on a permanent basis - for all time. PUBLIC, PRIVATE, GOVERNMENTAL ( Fed., State, Local, EDUCATIONAL, HEALTH any and all forms of employment any and all employers foreign or domestic to operations here in the U.S.A..

WAGES; 1st level managers can not be paid more than 20% more than the lowest paid employee.

Middle Management cannot be paid more than 20% more than the lowest paid 1st level manager.

Executive management cannot be paid more than 20% more than the lowest paid Middle Manager.

Any and all bonuses to be divided equally on the SAME BASIS - lowest earning employee to the CEO. Stocks or Cash.

Public or Private business falling outside of these guide lines could be taxed with appropriate penalties applied to the business and the individuals in that business falling outside the parameters.

With these changes there would be no need to make major tax changes.

Tax breaks could be applicable for: Reinvestment in infrastructure, new technology, green operations, increased employee base. charitable donations, continuing education for employees, etc.

Given the sickness of today's Business practice these changes will likely only happen by imposition. Also any Foreign business or any domestic business employing out of the country but doing business here in the United States must be made to deal in competition with domestic business on a level playing field - PRICES CHARGED FOR GOODS AND SERVICES MUST BE COMPARABLE ACROSS THE BOARD. Competition could then be in what it should be - And That Is Quality.

THIS IS A GLOBAL MARKETPLACE. More So Every Year. We Need To Institute Global Standards for Global Health. No breaks for introducing new market places "Everyone Competes Equally from Day 1"

I don't like the idea of tax breaks for infrastructure because, after all, it's the corporations that want the improved infrastructure to enable them transport vastly great er quantities of goods from our ports.
