I'll say it again, CEO pay ain't the problem. Did the math once for American Airlines, then McDonald's just lately. If the CEO took $0 pay, and that was spread among total employees, it amounts to chicken change.
Hell, let's take aim at Microsoft, why not.
And most of that was stock, not cash.
They have 228,000 employees. Spread that around and it amounts to a $347 yearly bonus. (Or, $.17/hr. if you like.) If I worked at M$, I'd be fucking insulted if that was my Christmas Bonus. Hell, my last job was at a tiny software dev and we all got 10x that much, sometimes more.
mcdonalds CEO isn't the problem. you're introducing a straw man to the argument; an easily-defeated example of a position, which wasn't stated by anyone but you.
