Let me lay it out really simply for you.

AT&T was split up into the bells in 1984.

He was CEO at Southwestern Bell.

Southwestern Bell bought what was left of AT&T in 2005, he lead the aquisition.

So.. how is that not transforming a baby bell into a telco power house?

AT&T is the market leader in nearly every sector in which it competes.

The government spends money trying to educate the public on new policy. That is well within their right. If it didn't achieve their objectives who can say, but i am sure that the unions anti-workchoices properganda didn't assist in getting across a clear message.

fix title spelling ffs.

also i think in the end it boils down to jealousy factor. good luck to him.

The only issue I see with this sort of payout figure is that shareholders don't (usually) get to vote on it. I also think individual companies should put a cap on payouts to individuals like this.

Where I have an issue is when CEO's completely screw things up and yet still get massive payouts.

all i can say government is very happy, look how much tax he will pay!!!!

psychophant

sorry ara I don't get it, can you lay it out EVEN SIMPLER
