Why do you frequently choose to critique the person rather than the position they are presenting? Don't give me your stock answer BS - this only happens with you. You are the most partisan, biased, non-objective poster on the thread, and also an America-hater. Your limited one sided viewpoint produces the criticism of you in many posters. It's not their/our fault - it's a result of your blinder mentality "see only evil in the USA" viewpoint. Rarely, when you take an opposing view do you defend your position with substantive support consisting of factual info.......ie your position on CEO pay. My "position" on CEO pay was a conjecture that perhaps the increase in stock option compensation explains the increase in pay from the 1950s to the 1990s. I still think that it's probably true. I don't care that much about it, so I'm not going to go research it to satisfy your desire for a link to what seems intuitively correct to me. Instead, you either unilaterally trash the person's position without providing any support for your claim while making a halfass effort to provide documentation, or you suggest there is a flaw in the person's personality and/or his/her approach to life. Trash your opinion? I asked you if you were against stock option compensation or not, you said stock options were nowhere close to the majority of a CEO's salary and I said sometimes they are, and gave an example(CSCO). In the subsequent discussion you told me to "stick it where the sun don't shine", called me a "sanctimonious twit" numerous times, told me that my kind (whatever that means) is "threatened with extinction", and then indicated that you should be respected for the high level of content that you, in your opinion, contribute to the thread. Do you ever shine the critical examination light on yourself? Someday do so and I don't think you are going to like what you see. And, you still haven't provided your recommendation about how to bring CEO salaries down to what you consider an appopriate level. You have complained a lot, and advocated nothing. What's your proposed solution, Senator Whiner, to improve the thing you are upset about? And you'd better keep a civil toungue or I am going to put you back on ignoramus.
