Whoever nicked you as RaGeon some weeks ago was right on the money. Seriously, what the hell is your problem? Just arrived in the US of A and can't figured out why not everyone is paid the same socialist wage?
I'm perfectly fine with him getting paid that, he boosted profit in a recession and deserves a bonus. That's the point of the free market, if he fucks up he will not be there much longer or his company will die.
I find it funny when conservatives complain that "socialists" are destroying capitalism, when its capitalists that are completely decimating it by insisting on sucking a shitload more money out of the system than actually exists.
lol.. that is called BHO and his cronies injecting more money into the system than existed in the first place. It's called pure inflationary spending to "jumpstart" the economy which will ultimately backfire because it's creating false demand when people don't have the means to acquire. Seriously, take some economics. Do you have a metal problem or something, because I'm seeing a pattern of the same exact rhetoric over and over, even though people correct you every time..?I find it funny when conservatives complain that "socialists" are destroying capitalism, when its capitalists that are completely decimating it by insisting on sucking a shitload more money out of the system than actually exists.
It all begins with voting for Congressmen in your area that are opposed to bailing out private sectors with public dollars.This issue is different when they lose the company billions of dollars, and then pay themselves using my goddamn tax money.
He deserves it.
I don't know why people hate CEOs so much. They do a lot. They don't just sip champagne and make the company billions of dollars.

Such a waste...of course they should get paid well for doing a good job, but what is the point of having so much money? If you already have 5 houses and 30 cars and a yacht another 2 houses and 10 cars aren't going to make you any happier. I hope he at least spend it on something that will help the economy and create more jobs.
Find another way to motivate people, maybe 10000 achievement points would make you put some extra effort into your job? I mean if you can spend hours and hours every day grinding points playing boring games then why not getting points for work? Or just have prestige points, I mean having a $1M car is all about prestige anyway so why not have prestige points Or maybe make something that extends your penis since that's pretty much what it is about when you get down to the basics.
What sort of thing? Is it a problem? Who would make these rules that say no cash bonuses could be allowed? Government?IMO the easiest way to fix this sort of thing is to not give any cash bonuses but only give stocks, and NOT preferred stocks, that they can't sell off for a time of at least one year. That way if they run a company into the ground, their "bonus" is worthless, if they do a good job, they can cash in. Even if the stock value of a company is only loosely tied to how well a company is doing.
As a human being I have a hard time backing up a company whom helped the nazi's.
I've banned IBM products nearly all my life especially their software and data apps.

too all of you guys bitching about how employee's are being laid off and ceo gets a lot money, what is your point?
its a business decisions that is expected, you think competitors are not doling out bonuses (in some form or another) and keeping their american work force?
its just the way this industry works, sell goods for $, pay less to make said goods = profit.
its easy to be arm chair general, but when all factors come into play its a hard decisions made by the CEO; to time shit right and get all ducks in a row.
you going to pay an extra 20% (arbitrary, so what?) for the American man made laptop? or the less expensive foreign robot made laptop?
as a consumer, alot of people get the cheaper price, while as a "ethical" protester, we demonized him for making shit efficient.

cool. Most americans work 40-60 hours a week to make 40-60,000 a year, and this dude plays pool and swims all day in his luxury swimming pool and gets paid 21 million just to sit in a chair and get his ass kissed by everyone under him.
If you get money from the government (i.e. taxpayers) because you're "too big to fall" then fucking yes. As for other cases? Shareholders should have a say in how the person who's running the company should get compensated.What sort of thing? Is it a problem?

The situation where the government bails out and rewards this bad behavior would prevent it in the first place.. and the latter, the shareholders do have a say. If they want they can take their money and go elsewhere, tanking the company.If you get money from the government (i.e. taxpayers) because you're "too big to fall" then fucking yes.

Unfortunately in a completely unregulated free market a ton of CEOs "fuck up" all at the same time and can completely collapse the entire world economy.
When we have a system that works like is has been, the CEOs really don't have to care whether the company survives or not.. They know they can slurp up huge bonuses, drive the company into the ground, then retire with more money than they would ever need for several lifetimes.
As far as the IBM CEO, at least in this case they actually have a decent profit.. But there are several cases of CEOs soaking up almost 10% of a company's profits, devaluing the stock, while driving the company straight into the ground.

I don't think any intelligent person considers a completely unregulated marketplace to be of use.
Problem is, governments tend to stray from the regulatory role that they should be playing...
