You are right that the government does not tell private companies what to pay their executives. The only pay mandate is minimum wage. Unions take care of the rest - as they should.

UNIONS????
Unions are defunct. They are no longer needed.
Private sector union membership is
6.7% and slipping fast.
Union membership should not be allowed in the public sector. Why should gov workers be able to force us, the taxpayer to pay them more? If they don't want to work for us, then they should quit. Our taxes pay their wages so they should not be able to utilize unions to negotiate benefits. Every time they get a raise, we have to pay higher taxes.
