I write in support of a strong Dodd-Frank rule 953(b).
Disclosure of corporate pay ratios between CEOs and average employees could discourage the outrageous and utterly unreasonable pay practices that fueled the 2008 crash and it will certainly better educate the public as consumers and voters. As a nation, we need to make public knowledge a paramount objective; this is one small step in that direction.
Please do not be swayed by the wealthy, greedy power brokers to undermine this bill. As a government agency, with important knowledge and power us citizens do not enjoy, your duty is to protect us. Please give us a voice against the self-serving interests of those who seek to undermine this rule and keep the public ignorant.
Thank you for considering my comment,
