I'm not defending high CEO salaries, but salaries and compensation are different numbers. Even CEOs that take $1 salary a year, cash in stock options for millions if the corporation does well or improves.
Who does he think he is, Michael Jordan or Oprah? After all, they have so much more responsibility and provide so much more to society.
Yea but they didnt deny a little girl leukemia treatments to keep money paid to them to cover the treatments to get their money.

I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.
