This might be the biggest Big Biz obscenity of the year.

(From today's online Wall Street Journal)

***************************************************
"Enron Corp.'s chairman and chief executive could receive a lump-sum payment of as much as $80 million as a result of Dynegy Inc.'s plan to acquire the struggling energy company, according to a regulatory filing released Tuesday by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

"Under Kenneth Lay's employment agreement, which originally extended through Dec. 31, 2003, the executive was entitled to a payment equal to the number of full calendar years remaining under his contract multiplied by $20.2 million if he terminated his employment within 60 days of a change of control."
**********************************************************

In Japan, these CEO clowns whose screw-ups cause the stock to sink in price by 75% fall on their swords. Over here, they walk away with $80 million.

Yeah, we need to run the federal government more "like a business."
