Abstract: 

The CEOs of US companies are compensated exceedingly well. A recent analysis by the AFL-CIO found that the heads of S&P 500 companies are paid 331 times as much, on average, as production and nonsupervisory employees. This article presents a graph detailing the growth in executive compensation, which took off in the 1990s.
