Radically egalitarian entrepreneur

Here is an article about a tech startup owner that lowered his own salary in order to raise that of his employees.  Apparently this brought much consternation and censure from the business community at large.  To me such a reaction is another sign of the perverse commitment many in our society seem to have to inequality and injustice, almost extolling them as if they were virtues.  This inverted morality was also on display in the documentary video I linked to recently on inequality.
