Care to provide some proof to that claim?

Don't be so damned lazy, Dennis. It's out there. It's even been reported
in the WSJ any number of times.


That is your typical response when asked to provide proof. But that dog don't hunt
anymore Harry. If you cannot provide the proof I guess I will once again assume
you
spouted nothing but a lie.


It's not my fault you're an intellectual washout, Dennis. It is
well-known that many American corporations grossly overpay their chief
execs, and that among many successful European corporations, the
multiple of the chief exec's income over that of the average worker
doesn't begin to approach the multiple here.

As an example, one of the highest paid European execs is Jorma Ollila,
the chairman and CEO of Nokia, one of the most the most successful telco
equipment manufacturers in the world. In 2002, Ollila earned about $3
million, half from salary, half from bonus. A lot of money, and much
more than his average worker, but...the multiple isn't like it is in
this country, where the typical corporate CEO at a large company is
taking home about 600 times as much as the typical worker.

Do something other than skim NewsMax, Dennis. Your ignorance of the real
world has to embarrass your family.



You still have not provided proof to your statement that "Most successful companies
overseas allow their chief execs to make only several times the average pay of the
people they employ."

Insult me all you want Harry. That is your MO when cornered like a rat.
