I don't think a pro extreme wealth position is a deep economic understanding at all. It's mere recitation of economic doctrine designed to serve extreme wealth

I am an extreme capitalism supporter: If someone brings value to an organization, they should be compensated for that value, whether they are a janitor or CEO. What "economic doctrine" do you subscribe to that would argue against that ? Please elucidate.

That "if" is critical. I do not buy the BS that a specific CEO has some magic sauce that makes the company profitable.. is worth that kind of cash. Or that if they have to pay steeply progressive income taxes it will destroy the business. Don't have a scholorly title for this, sorry.

If a CEO asks for a high salary and gets it, that is because the organization thinks it is worth the price, that is what he is paid. Your opinion has no bearing on this. That is the economic reality. If a company was willing to pay whatever you asked, would you as for a high salary or a low one?
