51. GOLDEN PARACHUTES:
What this actually is, is when someone works for a
company,
then after a very short time, or any minor length of
time,
they leave the company,
and are paid a huge parting gift,
such as $45 million,
or $400million.
This is a rape of the finances of a company that
deprives the stockowners
of the rightful profit of the company.
I will establish that person may be paid up to one
months pay (per years/of employment)
as a parting gift “Maximum” (still taxable), and not
to exceed 25 times
the pay/(per monthly income @ 40hr/week, that would
still be about $125/hr)
received by the lowest paid employee.
Above that, I will tax those individuals super
aggressively,
until they stop stealing what belongs to the
stockholders
to end the stealing of the stockholders money.
Wednesday Jan 24, 2007 San Francisco:
GAP Inc. was struggling financially,
so in Sept.2002 the company hired Mr.
Paul Pressler as CEO,
but since Mr. Pressler
did not perform,
“The
GAP”
decided to let Mr. Pressler
go (fired).
Mr. Pressler, and
The GAP,
mutually agreed to end his employment.
Mr. Pressler
received a parting GIFT of $14 Million.
How many of you citizens can expect that
kind of parting gift
when you are FIRED?
What about the stockholders for that
company?
A company already in financial stress,
and they pay $14 Million of the stockholders
money to some one they are firing.
WRONG!
This is just one of thousands of such common
events in Corporate America.
In Los Angeles this last year, the Los Angeles Unified
School District
had hired a Superintendent to run the entire school
district.
He was not able to do so, because the District blocked
changes he wanted to make,
so they fired him,
well NO, actually they gave him $500,000 to quit,
after only 2 years of employment.
Your money, citizens of Los Angeles.
Now your government wants YOU to invest in the stock
market, for your retirement,
instead of relying on Social Security.
Your government loves you, don’t they?
The Gap’s Mr. Pressler
(above) previously worked for Disney Corp.
I wonder how much Disney Corp. paid him to leave?
These are the millionaires that elect your
politicians.
Had enough of this?
This happens all the time, enough is enough.
A number of the more than 100
CEO-pay proposals on ballots
at shareholder meetings this year
are likely to pass,
he said. There is a lot of
interest this year, he added,
largely because of such
well-publicized cases as Lee Raymond,
chairman of Exxon Mobil,
"who got a $400 million
package"
heading into retirement.
None of the compensation packages
in the Toledo region
is even close the $249 million of
Richard Fairbank, of Capital One Financial Corp.,
or $133 million for Henry
Silverman, of Cendant Corp.
