You know what grinds my gears about executive pay? Not the marginal tax rate, and not how much they make, but tax breaks and loopholes for the wealthy.

Take your typical law firm or accounting firm: your associates are all being taxed at the highest marginal rate making $150k or $200k a year. Then you make partner and your pay increases massively, while magically your effective tax rate goes way down.

Good old professional corps.

And that's just one example of the way the tax system is currently malfunctioning for high income earners.
