“Good for them.”

Indeed.
But having said that, their remuneration including the perks worthy of a sultan are certainly an issue between them, and their stockholders.
As a shareholder, I always vote against any measures affording executives ridiculous benefits and compensation.
Executive talent is one thing, but living off my dime, in over-the-top decadence, is quite another.
When they tell others how they should live, and give money to politicians to force us to live how they think we should live, then their personal and corporate lifestyle becomes a subject of public interest - and derision.
Most of the Google guy’s compensation is tied to performance through stocks.
I may not like their politics, but they are earning their money by creating a service the public is freely choosing in mass. If ‘living like a sultan’ is the choice they make off the reward of that, good for them.
