"Actors are not supposed to run a company."

Well whether or not they are incorporated for tax purposes. My question I guess is why can they demand multi-million salaries and CEO's of companies cannot. If I were to bring in some business for my company I'd get a bonus of say ten percent. If a CEO brings in business for his company don't you think he'd be entitled to a percentage bonus? Just wondering ....

The market is way down...stocks have fallen horribly, I don’t think CEO’s should get any bonuses...but that’s not up to me unless it’s a bailed out company...taxpayer money should not be used for bonuses...I think these CEO’s are only interested in enriching themselves and care nothing for the companies they run or the stockholders. I think they are way overpaid personally. However, any company not on the dole can do as they please. I do think that if Wall Street does not reign this compensation thing in...there will be regulations; we have a Dem administration. To many CEO’s have bankrupted their companies and walked away with millions...it’s just plain immoral.
