(But rather than edit to add)

It's not their salaries, that's not the problem, it's their tenacious need to play everything mightily safe while the world needs change. It's their douchebaggery itself. Every place I've ever worked, company politics is the ruin of productivity. When someone cuts through that, something better becomes more important in the company culture, and it can wind up improving the world.

If you can find people who can do that, the true leaders - visionaries, motivators - they should be paid 100 times what these douchebag CEOs are paid, and it would be a bargain. I doubt there's one of em amongst the douchebags. Gates, Jobs, Larry and Sergey, they had to invent something to get into the club.
