I do not want this mans money...but CEO's at the top would not make all that money if not for the people who do the jobs each and every day. The workers who stock the shelves, answers the phones, or push the papers and many many more dutues and assignments. All the workers want is a piece of the profits for their hard work; instead all the profits have been divided up to the very top few, or put in banks off shore to avoid paying taxes on the money. For the years of dedication and doing a great job, the workers get nothing year after year, while expenses go up....in fact their medical insurance has gone up, and other benefits eliminated, but still they work hard........and just as they are looking for a second job, canceling the newspaper, or the health club to save a few dollars they are advised that their jobs are going over seas and if you stick it out until the end and train some of these people....you might just get a few hundred dollars of a bonus for your efforts. Then the CEO and his buddies take that golden retirement package and lays on a beach somewhere, so he doesn't have to pay taxes. His buddies and the CEO pay a lobbists to get their already paid for senator to change the rules so they can bring back a big wade of that tax free money state side, to give to their kids and grand kids. They are not really too interested in creating jobs, and they laugh at the poor people who have no clue of just how much of a mushroom they are....and hope it stays that way! Only in America....and you wonder why people are involved in OWS. This is only one story of what is happening...there are thousands, may millions of more stories. No one CEO is worth 12 to 19 million dollars a years for setting on his butt, while the rest of us do the real work. Young people are our future, who do think has been fighting these wars? Our youth are not all lazy....we have all been through growing pains...and we succeeded, our youth will too...if given a chance!
