re: #62 lawhawk
I’d tie it to the lowest wage of the employees of a given company. Say 30 times the lowest wage offered, including all stock options, golden parachutes, etc.
So, if the lowest wage is $15 per hour, then the CEO wage can be no more than $450 an hour. It’s an obscene amount of money, so if CEO wants to increase own wage, they’d have to hike wages for his lowest wage employees.
$16 per hour gets him to $480 per hour. Etc.
That $450 an hour equates to $900k a year for a salaried employee (assume 2000 hours). That’s not a bad deal for total compensation for a top executive.
