A SOCIAL IMPOSSIBILITY THEOREM
For centuries, generations of philosophers and social scientists have studied the sources of income inequality in human society. Finally, a major breakthrough in the form of a mathematical proof of a fundamental truth, long suspected by millions of laboring individuals, and now shown rigorously.
Theorem: It is impossible for engineers, scientists and the professoriate to earn as much money as business executives.
Proof:
Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power.
Postulate 2: Time is Money.
As every engineer knows,
Since philosophers and economists have amply demonstrated that Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money, we have via substitution,
Solving for Money, one obtains:
and taking limits,
Result: The less you know, the more you make.
