## Executive Pay
#### CEOs make up the richest of the rich and earn hundreds of times more than their workers
* [Economic Policy Institute: Mishel and Davis 15](https://www.epi.org/publication/top-ceos-make-300-times-more-than-workers-pay-growth-surpasses-market-gains-and-the-rest-of-the-0-1-percent/)
* Top CEOs make more than **300 times** that of the average worker
* [Inequality.org](https://inequality.org/facts/income-inequality/)
* CEO Pay Gap **increases drastically**
* Corporate executives head about two-thirds of Americas richest 1 percent of households.
* While not as high as the gap in top companies, most corporations have still seen handsome increases in their executive-to-worker pay gap
