Pilots used to pride themselves on reading charts. Apparently no more.Foxy's (ewww) chart list the top 50 or 100 CEOs.We are talking about all CEOs.

I personally don't think you could find, here in the United States, 5 CEO's, at companies that have been in operation for more that a few years, whose gross pay is anywhere close to your 3 or 4 times the gross pay of their average employee. Again, I'm not positive, but I seem to remember something about Japan, where the CEO's make a much smaller spread, but even there it's well over 4 times average employee pay. And let's face it... I'd want my CEO to make a ton, if he or she is worth it to the corporation.

This has caused the wage stagnation you whine about.

Man grow some nuts and speak you mind. Are you suggesting that companies don't hire Aliens, legal or illegal? Because it seems like you have something personal against aliens. Did one of the ate your cookie? Or are you worried you won't be able to compete for the same job. You can't discriminate against an individual because he/she is an alien. Some of my best teachers, doctors, engineers ect I know are all aliens. If you discriminate against them, they will find employment in other country and the quality of professional you'll get will decrease. Stop being bias, your ancestors were given a fair shot now it's someone else's turn stop hating.

I bet they all came here illegally!

Also, some of my ancestors are Native Indian! How much of a fair shot have they been given?

You are just weird and stupid. My point is that all job growth in the last 15 years has gone to aliens and you some gather that my point is "Are you suggesting that companies don't hire Aliens, legal or illegal?"

Let me type really slow for you and then you can get back to surfing porn. Aliens; legal and illegal, work cheaper than native Americans. Therefore if aliens take all of the new jobs created then wages will be stagnant. See that is the theme we are discussing. I have nothing against legal aliens. Line jumping illegal aliens however should not be allowed to work and drive down the wages for entry level jobs. There is a reason you couldnt get hired a McDonalds. Illegals work cheaper and dont smoke dope in the bathroom on their break.

So now which is it, you want to work at Fedex or you dont want to work at Fedex? You have claimed both in the last 2 months.

Who was that last poser that used to hang out here, I wonder where he went.
