I'd love to see the arguments for why this was such a scandal.

I agree that the pay was outrageous, but then again, how many other people were paid outrageously during the late 90s? How many others are still reaping those benefits because the pay was set in the late 90s.

Looks like we won't be happy until we dismantle capitalism completely.

Where's that freakin island?
