Yeah and you may not like it but corporations are just doing their job too, which is maximizing the return on their shareholders investment, not providing a high paying job for life to some high school graduate. Publicly traded corporations are controlled by very demanding and impatient stockholders who really only care about the size of their dividends. If a CEO makes big coin it's because he is doing right by the people who pay him.
