I read the whole article. While I don't like his politics, and I don't think he fully understands the people he donates to, I think he's a decent guy. His customers and employees are happy, but the Wallstreet analysts grumble. So what?

I love investing and Wallstreet, but there is no doubt in my mind that wage earners get the least benefit from our economy, mainly because the government screams inflation and puts the brakes on the economy every time the market favors labor. It's good to see a CEO that cares about his people as much as his shareholders, and only takes a modest salary for himself.

I think I read somewhere that economists claim that we need a permanent pool of unemployed workers of roughly 5% to help keep labor costs in check.
