Executive Compensation – Where Economic Policy and Politics Collide

America’s business executives have been transformed into the country’s political piñata. The media and an entire gaggle of Washington D.C. politicos would have us believe that it is these executives who are at the core of the nation’s economic woes. Never mind that these very executives are the only people with the potential to restore investor confidence and market growth, and that it is in their own best interest to do so. We all know what the problem is: executives make too much money

Fascinating. In a country where teenage basketball stars receive $90 million dollars in exchange for wearing a certain brand of sneakers, the executives who lead the companies that have created the richest nation on the planet make "too much money".
