[Michael Eisner has created tremendous shareholder value]
[Those so called sweatshop workers make an average to better income]

I don't believe that Disney workers make a decent salary -- for example, Disney workers in Mexico earn less in a week than the amount needed to buy the minimal food (rice, beans, tortillas) for a family of four, according to the labor activists.

So, you think it's morally acceptable to give Michael Eisner hundreds of millions of dollars while his workers work long hours, endure squalid conditions, and barely keep themselves from starving? Why not make the workers into slaves then Mr. Eisner would make even more money?

Let's summarize -- your attitude seems to be: as long as you and your fellow shareholders and Mr. Eisner do well, the workers should suffer and be exploited.
