    Top earners get 75k, because people earning more than that are rarely paid in a fixed wage.

    They get stock options, stuff gets moved to an off-shore company, you start a company that pays you out a dividend under the threshold, any income paid out gets spread between partners, etc.

    Until the Scottish government tackles large land owners, capital, and loopholes this is partly(!!!) performative. Something’s better than nothing though.
