Let's say it takes one minute to (forgive me) "take a piss".

The McDonald's employee making min. U.S. wage of $5.15 grosses 8 cents for his time in the bathroom.

FOr the top 1 in 1000 Americans who "take home" $4.9 million a year, working say 240 x 8 hr days a year, that is: $20,400 per day $2550 per hour $42 per "time it takes to piss"

Versus 8 cents (minus taxes if any).

Or rather, at minimum wage working an 8 hour day you still don't make as much as the rich person does in one minute in the can.
