CEOs work harder every hour than their wage slaves do every season.

I'm gonna sit here and wait for Tiberius to come in and tell us all how they deserve every penny they get.

Depends on what you mean by "deserve". Did they do a large enough amount of work as a CEO to merit such a large amount? Probably not. Do they deserve to keep it? Yes.

CEO's get paid large amounts; it's the way things are, mainly because there are precious few CEOs, and even fewer good CEOs. Running a large corporation isn't a job that just anyone could do; most of us (myself included) would fail if we tried it.

The good news though, is that you can directly influence the amount of money a CEO gets paid. Just stop buying products / services from their company, and get enough people to do the same.

What makes them deserve it? The working classes have the might to take it all back. They are the ones who created all the wealth. Why shouldn't they?
