There are several BIG pharmaceutical companies near where we live. I can't remember which one, but a bio-chemist gent at one of them discovered a breakthrough treatment for some serious disease. The big pharma company made $$$ billions $$$ from his discovery in drug sales. His "bonus" for his discovery - which was leaked out (I'm sure with great revulsion!) - was $10K. For a multi-billion-dollar discovery, wouldn't you think the company could've parted with $100K .......... or maybe $250K? The measly "bonus" (boner) info got around the local pharma community pretty quickly. The CEO got north of $85 million for his "genius."
Trickle-down economics on display.
