Sure. In basic terms, I mean any positive earnings, in the form of on-hand revenue. For example, if ACME Company earned $10B in 2011 and the CEO took home $1M, then the following year ACME Company only earned $7B, the CEO should not make $1M in salary, he/she should make 70% of that, or $700K. Just throwing out rough numbers there, but you get my drift. And that should include value in Options. CEOs should not get guaranteed compensation, the "regular working man" doesn't why should they? All the people in the company play a role in progressing that company, so why should the CEO get an exponentially better benefit? That shit is wiggity-whack.
