I am not an accountant but from what I know, taxing stuff like compensation in the form of stocks is pretty hard to do.

I'm not disagreeing with you, the system is just rigged in favor of very wealthy people.

I think that's the whole point we're trying to change in this discussion. ๐Ÿ‘

Oh for sure, it's just going to be a really long uphill battle as long as the current liberal system is in place.

I don't have any faith in any reform happening with wealth in any country. Money is too powerful to change anything at the top. ๐Ÿ˜” So in that sense, a very long battle indeed. ๐Ÿ˜ž

You just make it illegal to compensate in this form. Problem solved.
