Boxer was a stockbroker before she upped her status to a professional politician (ha, ha). Lots of campaign contribtutions from the silicon valley boys to protect the rights of the managers to pay themselves. Having been an exec in a fortune 100 company I have first hand experience of how insidious the system is. Not only do the execs get options and bonus but this goes to the watchdogs too (internal cpa and attorny). Tremendous pressure to deliver earnings every Q.
