i wouldnt expect them to go earning $1 a year. not because i think they deserve their current salary, but for other reasons.
does alot of you think for some reason they live in 100k-200k house like most of us? they live within their means, much like we do. they just have a helluva lot more means.
they buy what they can afford...and most likely save-per percentage- the same we do per year. they would have to adjust theirs and their families lives completely, probably selling their home, etc. do alot of you really beleive they stockpile their money in gold bullion in case the apocalypse should happen? no. im willing to wager that their mortgage adjusts to about 25% their income per month just like ours. to ask people to adjust their lifestyle in the amount they asked is completely ridiculous.
in truth, the people asking them these inherently stupid questions are just covering their ass because they got burned by the execs that took the spa trip. they are not being "tough" or even making sure your tax dollars are "in good hands." they are positioning their public face to be clean for when election time comes.
i actually applaud the ceos for answering truthfully.
and in case you are wondering, yes. poloticians rank on my list of favorite people right in between traveling vaccum salesman and ambulance chasers.
