It takes the avg American around working 30 years to earn one million...............and he along with all these corporate publicly traded companies are guilty, thanks to the Congress and past administrations who are in their service, as opposed to making the laws, and rules which would subject them to getting paid from the revenues they generate, this would make them truly earn their money as opposed to filling a seat. This is nothing more than allowed loopholes to issue stock and stock options, even during a company failing to profit, with out of this world severance pkgs even for limited service, unlike those who labor to build these companies in hourly wages, or those who invest in them, unless we measure their comp hourly to be in the range of $10,000 to $20,000 an hour and some much much more, even when their involved in corporate travel???, their travel expenses can reach into the tens of thousands.................not one has yet created space travel, found a cure for MS, or cancer, or the fountain of youth, but you would think they have. Not one person on this planet is worth these comp pkgs. $500k on the low end to $2m on the high end would be winning lottery tickets to a job position of Ceo, and many willing and able would be overjoyed with getting such an opportunity with that kind of pay, but even this would need to be scrutinized by shareholders and how well the company would is doing............$2m for the biggest of companies would be an extreme payout.
