Obama & the Democrats have increased CEO pay by 27% while employees pay stalls. Having worker pay stall in Obama & the Democrat's inflationary environment really makes me want to vote for more Democrats in 2012.

"Set up for an even bigger payday in the future. CEOs saw the estimated future value of stock and options awards take off in 2010, with the median value gaining 32% to $5.6 million.CEO pay soars while workers' pay stalls - USATODAY.com
At a time most employees can barely remember their last substantial raise, median CEO pay jumped 27% in 2010 as the executives’ compensation started working its way back to prerecession levels, a USA TODAY analysis of data from GovernanceMetrics International found. Workers in private industry, meanwhile, saw their compensation grow just 2.1% in the 12 months ended December 2010, says the Bureau of Labor Statistics
As CEOs tell their workers....."You need to tighten your belts in these tough economic times"
While 2/3rds of corporations paid no taxes
Another false comparison. How many of the 158 companies surveyed paid no taxes?
You say that 2/3rds of all corporations paid no taxes, how many of them earned no profit?
They probably mean federal corporate income taxes. If you count all taxes, including FICA, sales, excise, etc, they have paid taxes. Plus the income of thier employees are taxed.
CEO's of the bigger corporation are paid based on the cronnies on the board and they all sit on each others boards. Compensation should be paid based on earned profit and stock holder return. I worked for a company whose stock went from 33 to 3 in about a year and the CEO took a $200million payout and quit. Good work if you can get it.
I got laid off.,
The income of their employees is NOT their money.

I agree
We definitely need to do something to redistribute the wealth and get some of that "trickle down" going
Obama should be ashamed for allowing this to happen

at least he kept unemployment under 8%, refuses to use signing statements, closed gitmo and has avoided further foreign adventurism and attempts at nation building.
just like he said he would.
