Actually, when you get right down to it, I don't have a problem with executive bonuses or avoiding salary caps. Let the companies pay their CEOs a billion dollars if they want. But the caveat to this is that in exchange, your company will never, ever get help from the Federal government if you do. No bailouts. No corporate welfare, or subsidies of any kind.
If you say you believe in capitalism, then act like it. Don't be a capitalist in the fat years and a socialist in the lean ones.
--Danny, who admittedly wonders why CEOs must be paid as much as possible to "attract the best people", while teachers, police, and firefighters must be paid as little as possible to "attract the best people".
