There is a reason why board members and sharehholders and paying executives that money.
Put it this way. You have an online book shop ten/twenty years ago. Do you hire some slob for 100k, or Jeff Bezos for 1 million? Or Jeff Bezos for a 10% share in the entire company? The executives can make or break your company: bankrupt it, or a turn it into what Amazon is today.

I'm all for CEOs (and anyone for that matter) making a fair market value, as much as they can get.
My thought is that perhaps if companies were not subsidized by the government, that market value might be less, because that money would need to be used in different ways.

In that case, we're in 100% agreement.
