There is a strong argument to be made that many of these executives are underpaid. Keep in mind their compensation is often composed of 90%+ equity in the company, which is not liquid for several years or upon meeting certain benchmarks. There's nothing wrong with giving a CEO partial ownership in a company that he/she directly grew.
Larry Kulp from GE is a good example of a Fortune 500 executive that deserves to make more. That guy came into a failing business and stabilized it. He saved hundreds of thousands of pensions. GE wouldn't exist today if anybody else in the world but him was their leader. That's huge. You can't pay somebody like that enough. If it wasn't for him, all the 99%ers working there would be unemployed. The fact that he's wealthy is not hurting anybody.
Afghanistan is low in income inequality. Does that mean their people are better off? Does that mean there's less poverty? Does that mean they have higher paying jobs inflation adjusted? No, no, and no.
Income inequality isn't a real issue. It has zero correlation with relative rate of poverty. It's just a tool that politicians use to manipulate envious people into getting their votes.
I rarely pre-order because it gives companies an incentive to build a sub-par product. Blizzard had earned my trust though. Having a kid killed my ability to play Overwatch as often as I used to, and this release gives me that part of my life back.
I liked the original more, but 2 kind of self destructed for me when it became impossible to put down for a few months and come back to. You can't have a full time job AND play get the most out of Destiny.
It's still the most mechanically sound shooter I've ever played, by far.
