Wsock, <the solution is to exercise all the options and sell of the stock to pay the taxes.> I appreciate you optimistic "explanation". However it does not pass a small reality check. In reality, every company's stock option plan has an option to sell off A PART OF THE STOCK to cover taxes if a person WANTS TO KEEP REMAINING SHARES. If you are not too lazy to check SEC files, e.g. for Albert Yu: biz.yahoo.com you would find out that he has sold every option he exercised, every one. So, since what time the tax become 100%? Can't wait for your next explanation :)
