Take Action Against Executive Excess!

Bank of America -- Thomas Montag

Even though Bank of America CEO, Kenneth D. Lewis, was paid $32,171 in 2009, the president of global banking and markets, Thomas Montag was paid $29.9 million for laying off 35,000 workers. Montag is among a group of corporate executives who were rewarded for firing workers to maximize their corporate profits during our current unemployment crisis.

CEOs of the 50 firms that have laid off the most workers since the onset of the economic crisis took home 42 percent more pay in 2009 than their peers at S&P 500 firm.

Help put these CEOs to shame. Write a post on your Facebook wall, send a tweet to your followers, and tell your friends that you won't stand for injustice. Together we can stop executive excess.
