The wealth created for QCOM employee's by participation in company stock incentive plans is a success story not a scandal. Wealth granted employees is taken from shareholders - if the shareholders are unaware of the nature and scope of this effect, is this not a scandal? Unquantified stock dilution is theft from shareholders, especially if options grants are made based on artificial (and manipulated) measures of performance. Incentives that favor short-term gains over long-term value are destructive to existing shareholders. Options grants started out as a way to pay lower cash comp; it was turned into a trough for managers to feed at. So much for corporate governance when the BOD all have their faces buried in said trough. IMHO. Rob
