The cure for outsourcing is simple. Congress should pass a law saying that no CEO of any US company can make more than 15 times the average wage of his employees. It certainly would be a cut for the CEO if the average wage of his company's employees was 5,000 a year, as it is in India.

This proposition is brilliant!

Sweet. FReepers supporting salary caps now. Hey, who's up for some Communism?

Salary caps on FR from the paleo crowd - can't say it was unexpected.

Actually, the current Internal Revenue Code contains something similar: salaries above $1 million for business executives (or any other employees, for that matter) are not deductible to the business. Another provision could be added to the Code saying that executive salaries above, say, 50 times the average salary of employees are not deductible to the business.
