They could pay their employees double. Or even quadruple.

But they don't because Gabe needs another yacht.

I don't think its necessarily how much he pays his employees. The larger issue is that the tax rate at the top isn't high enough.

It's all of it. He takes too much for the services he offers. He gives too little to his employees. He isn't taxed enough for what remains.

It makes sense that people can earn a few multiples over the median for working hard and maybe also for taking risks.

It makes no sense that people can earn a million time as much as the median by not working hard and never facing actual risks.
