[Old School]

What about outlandish pay packages for corporate executives? Nowhere else in the world are CEO salaries so out ofline with the rest of society's. Thirty years ago the ratio of a top executive's pay to the average worker's was fifty or sixty to one. Today we have executives who are making a thousand times what the typical worker makes. You don't think that the love of money makes for excesses which negatively impact the whole society? Is that right?

In professional sports, the "employees" make as much or more money than the CEO...at least the best employees. By the way, the money we pay to those who entertain us, the amount of money that is, and what it says about our society is a matter of spiritual reflection, isn't it?

I'm sure one could find a larger discrepancy somewhere.

Let's see now, by your diffinition these unscrupulous CEO's who are responsible for managing huge corporations which employee hundreds or thousands of typical workers are not worth their salaries.

Most athletes also make a thousand times more than the average "Joe", these young men depend on the typical worker to pay their salary. Are not these salaries also out of line with the typical worker?

Do you not have a problem with a grown man chasing a ball and making a thousand times more than you do?

IMO neither are worth the millions they make, but if it came down to one or the other, I would rather see a CEO make more than a professional athlete.
