1341540 2013-05-16 13:27:00 Oh c'mon guys, please don't be small minded. Share bonuses have been part of commercial activity for over 30 years. In fact the origin is trade unions asking (rightly) for shares for employees many years ago in the hope workers would become part of the enterprise. It was a fine idea but workers saw a clip on their pay packet and said no. Eventually share options and bonuses were only taken up by management who had a longer term view.

Even that has had sad consequences because various businesses have folded and the hoped for shares evaporated. Check out the American experience.

The real problem IMHO is the disconnect between average employees earnings and those of senior management. How can anyone justify a $1 million salary for a person when the average staff member is earning say $70k? Or a lot less.

Things are out of whack in our financial world even after the GFC.
