65. Problem with those Health Insurance companies is if the top
guy is getting 25 million it means there are hundreds more making > 1 million a year.

I actually would like to see the president and congress get a big pay raise. I don't know why people carp at pay raises for them every time they get them. If they get money from tax payers it is less they have to go looking for from special interests to fund their campaigns. Also it would help attract more talent away from the private sector towards government.

They could pay the President 10 million and I would think it reasonable. I see that as the top end. I don't think there is any reason for any CEO to be compensated over that amount.
