Comment on Why CEO’s Earn More Than Janitors by T.S. Garp

To Phred:

Excellent article. It’s up on the wall at work.

To Darren, post #11:

Working backwards here…

The person or persons that hire the CEO, and he is an employee, must make sure that they outline clear and measurable goals that the CEO must meet. These goals are specific to the CEO only. Thus, the CEO cannot “make sure some other party takes the fall” when failure occurs. Failure to meet these goals, which I assume are designed to add value to the company, should result in a proper response from those who hired the CEO (i.e., reprimand, demotion, termination, etc.). This is true for any employee, by the way. If those that hired the CEO agreed to some crazy post-employment compensation, then that’s their fault and not the CEO’s.

If others allow the CEO to take credit for work they, in fact did, shame on that person. Why would someone allow that unless they felt there was some value to them? A question to you…Is the end result of the work, with or without proper credit, a value to the company?

Your questions are an indictment of a group of individual’s actions or lack thereof. They are hardly an indictment of “wage disparity” or of capitalism itself

What if the CEO’s primary skill is convincing others (a corporate board, for example) that the CEO has scarce and valuable skills, and is creating value for the company? What if their next most important skill is convincing others to allow the CEO to take credit for work they didn’t really contribute to? Such a CEO might manage to be really well compensated without creating any real value. In fact, they might run a company into the ground, use their skill to make sure some other party takes the fall, and end up pocketing huge bonuses in the process.

Comment on Constitution, Shmonstitution! by kishind

Oh Phred, I disagree with so much of what you say.

Thus, I will continue reading, because I will never allow my understanding of the world to stagnate by not giving careful consideration to those who disagree with me.

The most dangerous aspect of the internet is that you can endlessly consume only the information that reinforces your pre-established dogmas. Given enough time, this can create absolute inflexibility in one’s mind. The world has enough Glenn Becks, thank you.

If after an honest discussion, you still disagree, well hey, that’s America. Free speech and free thought are practically the same.

Keep speaking your mind!

To Jack, post #3:

The folly of, “From each according to his ability” is inspired by the book of Acts. In fact, Marx drew his inspiration from Biblical accounts of the early Christian community.

Now I understand that the will of holy Spirit is to live in harmony with all creation to the best of our ability, but it’s just not economically viable. That idea goes in the bin.

Alternately, I realize the human spirit has been around much longer than money or our not-really-free market economy. And this economy, it’s just not spiritually viable… and… maybe that idea should go in the bin.
