What are you talking about?

I just try to understand your position.

Imagine that you are a successful businessmen who pays his workers little and enjoys large profits. Imagine that your employees cannot afford to take vacations and that you have such luxuries like yacht and private jet.

My question is, would you give up your private jet or the yacht if this would enable you to provide means for your employees to enjoy modest vacation. Let us assume that you would still be able to go to Cancun and have other luxuries.

What would be your choice and would you feel guilty if you did not exercise your generosity?

Different skill levels receive different compensation. I would suggest you understand that before you bring up fantasy scenario's.

Have you started a business to create jobs for others?

Let me add a question for you. Do you think that choice should be made by the government?
