115. While I agree with most of what you write, stock options ARE "salary"....

Which is another one of the conceptual problems with this "two class" theory--conceptually stock options are just another form of compensation for Dimon. They are, in other words, another form of wages, which Dimon "earns" from his labor. Now, you might attribute the growth in value of these options to "investments", but the value as issued is simply another form of compensation.

And, fwiw, Dimon was brought up as an example of someone who supported the OP. I just thought it ironic, since Dimon obviously earns a salary.
