If the company (board members, share holders that are also making money..usually) votes to give the guy that money why would you think the gov't should cap it? If they think he's worth it why shouldn't he get it? How would you feel if the gov't stepped in and capped nurses salaries? You make what the market will pay you...unless you get minimum wage then it's set by the gov't.
