Careful dude, you’re tip toeing very close to coming down on the OWS LEFT of McCain and Carly on this one..........VERY very close.
All the studies I have seen show no correlation between CEO pay and company performance. $42 mill is insane, think what productive things HP could have done with that money. Stockholders or somebody needs to stop this abuse.
That “part-time secretary” bit really irks me. So she worked a basic job before completing her education, which included getting an MBA at one of the very top schools.
She wasn’t being underestimated or sold short when she was hired from that position, and she “worked her way up” from such a job the same way any Harvard or Stamford or Wharton MBA grad does.
There is less than nothing sexist about her having had to rise from such a position.
"In April 1987, as the world of savings and loan associations teetered under the weight of a boom in commercial real-estate lending, a group of senators met twice with federal banking regulators on behalf of Charles H. Keating, Jr., whose bank later collapsed at a cost to taxpayers of $3 billion. The senators -- Alan Cranston of California, John Glenn of Ohio, Dennis DeConcini and John McCain of Arizona, and Donald W. Riegle of Michigan (who attended only one of the meetings) -- had collectively received $1.3 million in campaign contributions from Mr. Keating, and their actions later became the subject of a lengthy ethics investigation into what became known as the case of the Keating Five. In 1991, the Senate censured Mr. Cranston and reprimanded the others for "poor judgment.''"
Ohmygosh, what a wonderful campaign ad this will make. McCain in 2008 defending Carly getting $42 million for destroying HP.
How did that job turn out?
And that race?
Yet another super stupid comment be this senile, brain? damaged ancient hack politician. What a PUTZ!!
Pretty good pay at Hewlett-Patel.
