Its a supply and demand thing mate. If someone is identified as a top executive then they must be paid top wages (in bonuses) to secure their services. I would rather we gave the salaries to the wealth creators than to the football players.

An interesting post ( as usual) JP, but I think there is a flaw in the logic.
Fact is, really, these highly paid execs/CEOs have very little bargaining power.
After all, how many $1 million/year jobs are out there?
Can you walk out the door of one business and walk right into another just like it?

The emporor seems to be without clothing in this case....no one has pointed it out to the stockholders yet is all.

Oddly enough, that does seem to happen, old buddy.

It's a small community, the CEO club.

About U.S. wasting resources, I pretty much agree because I live in NY, and well, people here LOVE to drive their cars even though the public transportation seems to be pretty much everywhere.
