I would think these CEOs are gods of some sort judging by the kind of money they get compared to the lowly every-day employee of the company. Did Yahoo's earnings even justify that sort of salary? "Yahoo's shares have risen 24 percent since the start of the year..." I guess...maybe?

But how much of that stock increase is based on judgments of her abilities, rather than on "HEY new shiny ceo we all win big now!"

The market for executive talent is if anything even more broken than that for programmers. It's best always to remember that the rates for these people are set by a backscratching cabal of similarly Peter principled dolts.

At least she's getting the cash for making the stock go UP - compared to banking/finance where CEO's give themselves billions for flattening the stock price, I would have no problem with this as a stockholder.

If everyone got $36 million dollars a loaf of bread would cost $36 million dollars. If no one got $36 million dollars there would be no bread.
