The Onion

I understand completely. My main concern however is not startup companies. I'm all for supporting smaller companies. It's more like huge corporations where the CEO takes the majority of the money and probably spends more time on vacation than actually doing anything. Even though I'm sure they do more than I am letting on, I don't think it justifies millions or even billions of dollars in pay and bonuses. If they started the company that's one thing. However most CEO's of large corporations are so far removed from the initial founding of the company they basically have less to do with what the company does than the average employee. The amount of money these companies could make if they actually put that money back into it is potentially higher than current profits. It's really a win-win situation for everyone except for the CEO instead of just a win for the CEO and nobody else.
