Professor Richard Wolff went off on the CEO of Dunkin Donuts about his declaration that a fifteen dollar minimum wage that his company and franchisees of selling stale donuts would now have to pay in some states. This scumbag by the name of Nigel Travis pulled in some four thousand plus dollars for his hard work and if anything's outrageous it is the idea of one guy commanding so much of a company's profits at the expense of workers these shits don't even want to enjoy a livable wage while baking the donuts that makes this guy rich. Wolff went on and was often repeated on progressive sites how the hypocrisy of this ass named Nigel that got to enjoy a salary of about $990,385. If you add in stock options and other non-salary benefits, his total compensation is calculated at over $10.2 million (or $4,887 an hour based on a standard 2,087-hour work-year). If there needs to be any federally mandated law it is a maximum wage where men like Nigel do not make such extravagant bonuses and extras while trying desperately to hold down the miserable and shameful wages of Dukin donuts and other cheap businesses. Mr Travis took over this large donut empire after previously heading other companies such as Papa Johns and Burger King which similarly depend on really low wages for the vast majority of its workers so bums like him can make so much and become respected talking points calling it absolutely outrageous that working people seek an improvement in their life. Greedy fucks like this CEO are part of the problem and the reason that workers are not seeing any financial gains despite the huge increases of productivity and these operators of business skim everything on the top so they can have a luxury lifestyle.
