Who is he to judge his labor is harder then everybody elses? Are we going to base salary strictly of labor now? Well goodbye regular CEO salary and hello to coal miners making millions.

How about all the kids that simply inherit the wealth and live off it without ever having to work hard, while their employees can be working their asses off.

It takes money to make money. Major taxation is part of that making money.

Why is he only making 10 million and not 20? Obviously he could be working harder and making more money. Or is he going to blame this on someone too? 10 mil a year isn’t enough to live on? Hahah

No wonder shit is going down hill.
