Also I'm pretty sure the implication is that everyone has the ability to go get an MBA (but is clearly just too lazy to do so) is pretty inaccurate. In the US, someone can easily accrue $100k+ in debt just to obtain that MBA, and few are in a place to put up that kind of an investment. Also obtaining said MBA is a far cry from a sure bet that the recipient is going to become a CEO.
It's not so simple as "get an MBA, become a CEO."

I don't really take this seriously so don't read too much into it. Any notion of government capping compensation is silly. Leave it to the owners (shareholders) to determine what they want to pay.
Well, anybody that's smart enough can get an MBA - get a student loan if you think it's worth it (it is I think).
