So, uh, what is the "proper" ratio here? It's hard to make any real conclusions without one.

I'd say no one person should have more than 10 times as much as another, as an absolute maximum. Of course I assume others will draw the line at different points, but no one in their right mind would find THAT acceptable.

What's wrong with someone being 10 times richer than another?
