"The President and any other elected official is a voluntary position....."

I didn'tdoubt that the hiring practices are looking for good candidates.  I'm simply saying their pay rate is pumped up not by demand, but by ego and  board members won't stop it - they don't want their own pay increases slowed down.   Don't get me wrong, some of these people are great talents and deserve respect and admiration.   I just don't believe it ethical to reward a single person that kind of wage when it's the combined efforts of the organization that makes things happen.

You could load up ever CEO in America tomorrow on a slow boat to nowhere and how mamy business would stop functioning?   Serious, any at all?  Why are these men and women considered so indispensable to the success of a company when they can be replaced tomorrow?

ps.  I feel the same way about pro athletes pay and I love sports.       I do NOT believe in equal pay.    There is middle ground.
