    Maybe the point, which you’re missing, is that nobody should be making that much money at a company.

      Fair enough but the “we don’t have the money” part is what doesn’t really make sense. CEO compensation, however egregious, is still a very small part of total payroll.

          The board of directors is not on payroll, they’re the owners, they get dividends or can sell part of the actions.

        It’s not meant to be taken literally, it’s meant to show how ridiculously inverted the current distribution of wealth and resources is in virtually all major US industries. The point is that the money is there. It’s just getting sucked up to the top.

          CEOs shouldn’t be payed less, because I will be CEO of Apple in 10 years.

            If you can’t spell “paid” you probably don’t know enough about how any of this works to have a strong opinion

              If you think I can’t have opinion on that because english is my second language, then I guess we are done, yes. Because I don’t want to have anything to do with you.

              I just haven’t use that word in past time in a while and I forgot. Something felt weird while writing it, but I don’t feel the need to spellcheck everything for somebody on the internet.
