It seems silly to equate organization "power" with "how much does the top guy make". For example, Obama makes less than the president of GM. (Heck - Obama makes less than the president of the UAW.)
- rdl 15y agoWhile I agree that corporations have a lot more money than unions, the presidents of many large unions make about as much in cash compensation (vs. equity) as most small to medium public company CEOs -- $200-500k.
