So they want to regulate all pay of executives in a certain industry, i.e. the financial sector? If this is approved, what is to stop them from doing so in other sectors.
But who is not to say that government cannot regulate pay? They already do so with minimum wage laws, so there is precedence in this field already. However, I think a better system maybe to tie the pay of the highest paid in the company to that of the lowest paid in the company. For example the amount that the highest paid in the company cannot exceed X amount more, or X times more (whatever is found to be equitable, within reason (which this is government (I must be crazy to think the government limits itself to reason alone), so maybe I should actually put a number rather than a variable)) than the lowest paid in the company. Therefore, as the water rises and the wealth of the company grows, all boats rise, as the metaphore goes.
