some reports calculate that divide at 330 times the median american worker. hers, more like 216 to 1. are any of these studies accurate? well, here's one problem. robert daines: the ceo salary is usually a relatively small part of their total take home pay. sam: robert daines, co-director of stanford's rock center on corporate governance, hits on a really important point. ceo salary isn't usually that high. the bureau of labor statistics says it's about $180,000 a year, which is roughly 5 times that of a typical worker. elon musk made $35,000 in salary in 2014. larry ellison made $1. robert: the vast majority of their pay is actually in stock options or stock that they get. sam: so, you can go by salary and stock awards, which most studies do. but it turns out that data isn't reliable either. brookings institution senior fellow robert pozen explained to us over facetime that stock awards aren't automatically awarded. they're usually tied to performance. robert pozen: the condition should not be just that the ceos alive and still there after 4 or 5 years. it sh

carson: ok, i think there aboutquestion in their how we look out for the american workers, how do we use our inhange rates, foreign trade a positive way. let me tell you what my general philosophy is. you consider around and you can manipulate all kinds of things and sometimes it works and sometimes it backfires, but one thing that always works and does not ask fire is if we have policies that allow the innovation, ingenuity, and hard work of the american people to hold sway and not interfere by imposing all kinds of external rings. we have very creative people here and they will find a way to do it. [applause] is not get in do the way of that ingenuity and that hard work. a lot of the interference that we do at the government level with various types of subsidies and things help one group that heard another. what i believe in is leading the strong survive. whoever is doing the best job, let them rise. if someone's doing a bad job, there's no such thing as too big to fail. will, fan do a better job and that's the way america is supposed to work. -- someone else will come forward and

that was, of course, a crisis for the american worker, who had promised to himself, to herself, to his and her children the american dream--a home, a car, a vacation, a college education. all of it. what a torture to a population that has learned to believe that with every decade, you'll make more money and that'll allow you to have these better things and to give them to your children, and you promise it and you believe in yourself, as you're capable of doing it, and suddenly the wages don't go up anymore. and it's not explained to people that the wages didn't go up anymore. they're just left without the wherewithal to achieve the american dream. and if you don't make it a national conversation and if you don't explain it to people why that happened, then americans blame themselves individually. "i didn't go to the right school." "i didn't take the right courses." "i didn't major in the right thing." "i didn't work hard enough." "i didn't please my boss," whatever.
