    That comes out to abnout $87,000 per employee. I’m sure those lower pay scale employees who really appreciated that were happy to get…oh, wait. What’s that? Of that amount, a total of $11,276,700 was handed out as bonuses to BDC’s top 10 executives. of course, give money to those that least need it. Yay capitalism.

        No, it’s a capitalism thing, because the same thing happens in private industry with depressing regularity: labour actually delivers the value, and capital takes the credit and thusly the rewards.

        Case in point.

      Is that a problem? $11M out of a pool of $250M doesn’t seem ridiculous. That still leaves over $80,000 per employee.
