Yeah, and your first born.

Hitler was probably the most famous of all introverts who became a leader....

Mismanagement

I wonder if he's been to one of those back stabbing Microsoft Performance Reviews yet, probably not since he's only there 8 months.

Move out of the US.

Because they didn't get rich blowing whistles, or by biting the hand that feeds them.

A global ban of US technologies might be coming.

Give the man a medal "Hero of the Human Race"

The Democratic-Republican party rules the US, there are no other parties to oppose them.

US justice system in ‘calamitous’ collapse

You get what you paid for.

I would love to "survive" on 5 million a year.

Microsoft? Sure you can make that, but you have to get to a good group, or you have to have psychopathic personality. Have fun competing with your peers for "visibility"

I donno, I've seen up to $180k from LinkedIn spam, some of those are not listed jobs in very hot companies...

Yeah but after a boom and bust cycle, the guy at the 300k house will weather it fine while the 1.5m guy will be bankrupt and lose everything.

Then those other companies are not competitive and will wither away in a Capitalist economy.

Problem solved.

tl;dr: paying high salaries is becoming a competitive advantage.

Keep in mind the housing price. Making 200k on a 1.5 million house is significantly poorer than $150k on a 300k house. All your extra incomes goes towards interest payments and then some.
