Should the government enforce a cap on CEO pay relative to the pay of their employees?

This policy would limit the amount a CEO can earn compared to the average salary of their employees. Proponents argue that it would reduce income inequality and ensure fairer compensation practices. Opponents argue that it would interfere with business autonomy and could discourage top executive talent.

Yes, all roles should pay the same. No one job is more important than another, they all fill a part of societal demand

They should be payed more for founding the company, but not way more than their employees because without employees the company wouldn’t run

No, unless this question relates to publicly funded entities. I don't think the government should be getting involved in private entities financial decision making

 @9NWX4CXanswered…2yrs2Y

Not to an extent. Depending on the expertise of the CEO they've earned enough to not stay tied to a relative number of lower levels employees but there should be a wage cap

 @9MKZG65answered…2yrs2Y

It should be on comparison of other CEO salaries in the same industry

 @9SHFD2Ganswered…2yrs2Y

If the CEO has proven time working at the company and in the country, there should be little need unless the salary is a ridiculous figure

 @9P84CCNanswered…2yrs2Y

No but there should be stricter legislation on stock options, share buybacks, reward linked to a company share price
