There's a theory that high executive pay isn't really meant to buy competent leadership. It's to inspire the people one rung below to work harder and try to be CEO one day.
Also: whatever happened to working for passion and love of the job? Or does that only apply to the lower ranks?

"gotcha" arguments like these only work if you assume the other side is some sort of monolith that both believe CEO should be highly paid and that employees should be driven by passion. Both might vaguely be pro-business, but by no means does one imply the other, and therefore makes for a strawman.
- triceratops 2y agoI believe one side talks out both sides of their mouth, by saying employees need to be passionate but also CEOs and other execs have to highly paid in order to motivate them. I don't think that's a strawman.
