RE: Demanding that the government “do” something for you is not a viable alternative, in no small part because, once the government does something for you, it is only a matter of time before the government does something to you, as the disaster known as Obamacare should have made abundantly clear.


Read my posts and you might even read this Newsweek article, there is NO HINT of any demand for government action.

There are lots of QUESTIONS, which is a natural reaction in the scheme of things given how the performance of companies are so out of whack with CEO compensation.

Then ask yourself this - why haven't you taken your money out of those corporations (since you're obviously dissatisfied with the pay their CEOs receive)? If you don't, then you have an answer to your question that is both necessary and sufficient - shareholders still see the exchange as being economically beneficial. Do we really need some thinly-disguised political propaganda from a rag like Newsweek to answer a question that should be self-evident?

"the new Dodd-Frank bill, which includes a rule requiring companies to disclose the difference in pay between their chief executive and their lowest-level workers"

What are you talking about?
