Money talks

Very interesting and wide-ranging infographic about money...

https://www.xkcd.com/980/

One group of stats that really stood out for me:

1965 production worker average hourly wage $19.61
2007 production worker average hourly wage $19.71

Typical 1965 CEO pay for the same period $490.31
Typical 2007 CEO pay for the same period $5,419.97

I'm no anti-capitalist, but it's hardly a surprise that movements like the 99% are gaining traction when you see how much CEO pay has gone up in comparison to your average worker.
