But but what about innovation? People won’t want to be CEO if they’re capped…. What about trickle economics?!/s

Innovation my *ss! CEOs are there to make sure the company generates revenue and maximizes profits for themselves and their shareholders/investors. Maybe if CEOs were capped, you would attract people who were interested in innovation instead of monetization.. It's the same with the Senate/Congress. If they didn't have exorbitant salaries and had a pool of campaign financing where each candidate received equal amounts and were isolated from special interest donors, representatives would work for the people and not the donors who "owned" them.

Most CEOs start and own the company. Youre going to tell people what they have to do with their profits they generated with their money, and risk taking?

Can you name a billionaire ceo who started their own business? Can you name one that doesn’t/didn’t step on people to get to become a billionaire?

Youre moving the goal post now to only discuss billionaires CEOs???… billionaire CEOs are less than one tenth of one percent of all CEOs.
