<<unfortunately, too many scumbags in high places would not benefit from such a sea change, so they will prefer temporary bandaid solutions until they are retired and off the hook.>> Exactly. And under the same category is the continued practice of not expensing executive options, so that officers of publicly traded companies can skim the profits for themselves and give the shareholders a high hard one. In the current economic environment it's not likely they need this form of compensation any more to retain talent (as is claimed).
