Nice, reasonable conclusion, guys. The answer is that capitalism has gotta go!!

It's clear that something about capitalism has gotta go. We can debate on what exactly.

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.
