Capitalism being the foundation of our economy by definition is a private owner paying the wages of an employee at the rate they agree upon based on his/her worth to the organization or business. Whether you are a CEO or a baseball player or a widget maker it is that bargaining agreement process that makes this country a place of opportunity. You can chose to be the employer or the employee. As long as the pay is not obtained through fraudulent actions the amount doesn't matter. Many of these CEO's and highly paid ballplayers become philanthropists giving huge amounts of their income to charity. These charitable gifts are not usually common knowledge because the nature of someone who would give is to give anonymously. So I don't begrudge anyone for their salary. They will have to account for what they did with all that influential money some day but not to us. I always marvel at the variety of ways to make a living in this great country and more often than not we prosper. Greed is the accumulation of things including money above and beyond which you can never properly use and the storage of such things so that no one else can benefit from them. Whether you make minimum wage or 30 million dollars, all are capable of greed.
