You’re earning what someone can get away with paying you.

It isn’t about what you “deserve” or about what you’re “worth”, it’s an exercise in maximizing the amount of money that flows up to the top.

There’s no way that you’re average CEO contributes more to society than your (to pick some random professions) average paramedic or nurse does.

You could argue that unfettered capitalism is the least worst system we know of but I’d say even in that framework there’s a hell of a lot of room for improvement.
