摘要：On my bulletin board is a cartoon that — I discover to my chagrin — I clipped from The New Yorker back in 1991. Obviously, an assiduous housekeeper I'm not. The cartoon is a six-panel grid with the title "The Big Questions." Each panel illustrates one of these questions-among them, "Where are we going?", "Where do we come from?", and "When do we eat?" — and concludes with, "Are we there yet?"
To these I would add another question that seems just as eternal: "How much should a CEO make?" The question became more prominent and urgent in the 1990s, when CEO pay began to climb past all previous reckoning.
