A CEO that lays off 30,000 workers and sends jobs overseas to a third world country and gets a $30 or $40 million bonus/salary package is a valid example of wealth distribution, as well.
That is not wealth redistribution. That is real world decision making. He paid paid by the stockholders to increase value of the corporation. He is not paid to be Mr. Nice guy to the workers.

He is doing what the stockholders require. They are investing into a corporation to MAKE MONEY! If it isn't profitable to make it here, you mkae it there. If you don't do this, the company goes out of business.
