“bringing in the personal” as you put it is a great tool here that separates the wheat from the chaff. It’s very easy to say “I work hard, sometimes for long hours, I don’t see much difference between what I do and founders, surely they shouldn’t be paid that much more than me”, but the reality is that it _is_ that much harder and riskier and beneficial to society, and the profits reaped are evidence. So you’re more than welcome to criticize, but they’re “cheap seats” comments to a certain degree. To stay objective about it though, the financial incentive brings a lot of innovation which helps all of society. They’re not taking your piece of the pie, they just baked some more.
