Scratch, Benjamin's, moolah, bankroll whatever, fact is...

quote:
WASHINGTON - Twenty-five of the 100 highest paid U.S. CEOs earned more last year than their companies paid in federal income tax, a pay study said on Wednesday.

It also found many of the companies spent more on lobbying than they did on taxes.

What's wrong with that? Salaries are a deductible expense. Would you rather pay it to a valuable officer of the corporation (who will spend much of it for living expenses, thereby helping the economy) or burn it in senseless and wasteful taxes? Salaries are taxed also.

Obviously you have yet to read this article--or review what this study concluded.

not necessarily groundbreaking news, but the current findings and the direction of the trends are.
