The Survey Says...

I'm trying something new here. I'd like folks to vote by leaving comments below.

The government has regulated and mandated minimum wage for a long time. Many see this a necessary to sustain a living wage. Others see it as a form taxation or taking from the rich to give to the poor.

But now there is a new outcry about the other end. The CEO of Morgan Stanley was paid 40 million for a year of work. The CEO of Home Depot was paid 210 million to leave. A-Rod gets 29 million to play a game. Oprah brings in 225 million and Rush Limbaugh is rumored to make about 25 million a year. See the list of the top paid celebs.

My question is this: Should the government regulate how much money you are compensated, both minimum and maximum?
