Stories like this are going to eventually lead to a limit to how much money an individual can earn from a company. I think it stinks, but there’s allot of emotion at work here, and it is being played by the dems and liberals to the hilt. Of course stories like the one of WaMu’s CEO doesn’t make it easier to make the case for CEO pay being the free choice of a company.

I'm afraid it may even be worse than that--can stories like this force our children to accept the idea that success is a bad thing, even unAmerican? That they should, instead, push for the lowest common denominator?

I guess I missed the part of this story that has something to do with "success."

Eventually this type of thinking will lead all the way to “why should a mechanic earn that much?”, “why does a plumber earn that much?”, and we will have the politics of why the poor and minorities should pay so much when their vehicles break down. You get the idea. It may seem silly to mention now, but rest assured, that’s where it’s going.
