> What is being rewarded in a case like Bill Gates is not more "work" units but creativity and risk taking.
Hmm.
But other people who are creative and take risks manage to lose most everything they have...I mean... thats kind of what a risk is... matter of luck.
I'm not saying that he shouldn't be rewarded...
My understanding is he worked very hard indeed... But i don't think we have to choose between him being rewarded the way he is presently or him not being rewarded at all.> The creative risk takers actually create more prosperity for the rest of us.
because... of the economy?
because... people like to think they could similarly 'strike it lucky'?
