Michelle Leder of Footnoted.org wrote an interesting entry in her blog yesterday on the issue of executive compensation. Her piece was written in light of the impending bailout legislation from the U.S. Treasury and pressure from parts of Congress to impose some form of limitation on executive compensation for financial firms that might participate in the plan. I highly recommend the quick read.
