    If the CEO is making that much wait’ll you find out how much the shareholders are making off those employees!

    It makes for a decent example I guess, but it’s really silly how fixated on CEOs Joe Public is. They’re hired by the board of directors, who are elected by the shareholders. It’s not like the CEO straight up owns the company (usually).
