A pay cap would keep these sleazy CEOs from taking our money, and that makes it worthwhile. There are other ways to survive, if they have a reason to find them, and self-interest is the best possible reason.

I don't mind if a good manager makes $50M or even $500M a year in a bonus. I do mind if a company is so poorly managed that socialists like Obama/Pelosi feel a need to divert $1,550,000,000,000 in taxpayer dollars to the company - and the executives get a bonus for a level of mismanagement that results in that kind of claimed "need". If their performance really justifies that kind of a bonus, then they must not need my tax dollars [actually, whether or not their performance justifies the huge bonus, they have no right to my tax dollars, but we are losing that battle unless the Senate RINOs hold firm].

Precisely.

And every conservative-minded person should be FOR such a bill.
