There’s a reason you, the pilot, are paid considerably more than the guy throwing bags in the belly.
That's a fabricated scenario with fabricated numbers that means absolutely nothing. Also, rampers vs pilots has nothing to do with the current tax structure and whereas it may relate distantly to the real wealth inequality issue, it's not a good analogy.

The gist of it is that America succeeds on innovation and being a land of opportunity, which has actually been severely eroded in the past decade or so.
