That's a great idea. No more than x times lowest salary. We'd all get insane raises off that concept alone
They'd just do what they always do and make the money elsewhere (mostly using accounting tricks), and claim they made $0 in income.
Good luck going tit for tat with capital. The house always wins.
I don't think the raises would be as big as you think.
Perhaps. Depends on the company, but I'm not sure what we have to lose here. Also consider total compensation because I bet those numbers are skewed down by the stocks and bonuses that allow for "$1 salary" CEOs. Worst case it just boosts worker morale. Extra assurance they're not being completely screwed over
