The sign of western capitalism is the rise of hundreds of millions of people out of abject poverty.
The fact that someone can make this kind of money under a largely capitalist structured gov't (lots of cronysim now unfortunately but still better than Zimbabwe) should be celebrated because it could be you or one of your kids. Instead you Marxist aholes incite class warfare and want to chop off the tallest trees in the forest so you can make yourselves feel better.
Much of the pay is through stock which is incentive based and aligned with shareholders. Lets ignore that and say it is cash and DA decides to take zero pay and distribute it evenly to all Hon employees. It would amount to $117 per employee. Making $117 per employee managed annually certainly doesn't seem expensive to me. Consider how important the performance of HON is to the millions of employees and world citizens that own it in their 401ks, pension funds, etc. The CEO gets paid to deliver returns to all these people which probably includes you.
Don't like it? Go find a job pulling $10.50/hr at some granola munching food co-op.
It's just a new bee CEO making this much. Imagine how much Mr. 'I Filled the empty shelves at Honeywell' Cote made, 1000 times more than avg worker!!! These are not even founders of a company, just CEOs, what gives? This is the product of Western Capitalism. No signs of getting better either!
Look down 10 to 11 posts. You'll see it's already been discussed.
Let me translate this for everyone - it would take you 333 years to make as much as he makes in a year
