The politicians should start to look at all the non-profit orginazations whose CEO’s earn over a million dollars in compensation. I think that any non profit organization that can pay out that can of salary is operating a for profit entity. Also taxing Political Contributions at 10% of the gross contributions received would generate a huge chunk of dough too.
