“Heaven forbid that the people who OWN the companies should decide how much they want to invest in top talent to run the companies.”

I agree.

Place the compensation packages for those at the top to a vote by shareholders.

I would love that!

If that is the case, then why are you all for the Government making such a decision?

I would keep the Government as far away from this as possible.

And here's how you do that. Buy a few shares in a company in which you want to influence how executive compensation is performed. Go to a shareholder's meeting. Advance your proposal for shareholder vote. If the shareholders vote in favor of setting up a scheme whereby they directly vote for compensation for the CEO, then that's the way it will be.
