Hey John, check out this article: marketwatch.com

Talks about the true cost of stock options. I do worry about a bill being past to account for options on the income statement as something that would stifle the generosity of companies to their employees. But as a shareholder, I'd love to see the company not dilute my shares by going nuts with the stock options. Either way, I wonder if they will be able to get passed the tech lobby and pass a bill like this?

LOL... yes, we're all better off.

And we take our paychecks (more than we can spend), and invest them in equities that are overpriced because of the stock options being given to them to pay them better...
