On the commentary part of the Atlas Shrugged Pt 1 DVD one of the film’s producers says if a batter can hit .300, if a basketball player does well with three-pointers, they can get a huge multi-million dollar salary. An actor who’s popular can earn $40 million per film. So why shouldn’t CEOs get a big salary?
People will not bat an eye at Pujols getting the money,
but a corporate CEO? “OCCUPY!!!”
I’m pretty sure the CEO cutting Pujols’ checks isn’t hurting.
