Re: A tad more info. We shouldn't be dictating what CEO salaries should be. We live in a free market system. We're not commies yet we're leaning that way with this new administration. |

1. If these cable and telecom companies are utilities or monopolies (and currently they are not legally declared as such), then certainly their operation (including executive salaries) can be regulated to prevent abuses.
2. If "bailout" money is accepted. I probably would not include telecom stimulus money in that category -- although I'd hate to see it go disproportionately to executive raises, I don't think that fulfilling a stimulus contract ought to subject a company to heavy internal regulation.
(All, please keep your replies on topic.)
