Obama Admn to "Rein in pay in US private sector" - (We told you so!)

[24KT]

Very simple and truthful answer.

I wish they would regulate MLM schemes better.  

There's no problem with the regulation of MLM companies, not these days
...it's the damned pyramid schemes that are causing all the problems, and not enough knowledgeable people who know the difference, ...both in the public and the press. There was however one CNN reporter the other day who got it right. though. I'll link you a copy of his article if I stumble across it again.

[Straw Man]

What about Hollywood and Sports?

I guess if they are public companies then they would be under the same requirement

who knows, maybe the shareholders will decide to pay the execs even more than they get now

{lol} Isn't that why we see such a move to the left here in North America. right wing scumbags sunk you. 

Do we really have to go through this again? It has nothing,zip,nada to with left wing or right wing scum bags. I has to do with governemnt scumbags, Glass Steagall act of 1933 was enacted to prevent another great depression like scenario.

In 1999 a republican controlled congress introduced the bill to repeal it, and was signed into law by a democratic president.

The taxpayers typically fund stadiums such as Yankee Stadium & Citi field.

I think tax payer funded stadiums are bullshit but I know that cities like them because they make money from them.

What about Sports.  Are we talking teams?  Aren't those usually privately held?

No I asked you a specific question based on your claim that since the public is involced with publicly traded corps the govt should be involved in exec comp.

Why not the same for teams in sports where the govt floats bonds and pays for the stadiums???
