The fourth Democratic 2020 Presidential candidate debate will be held on October 15, 2020 at Otterbein University in Westerville, Ohio, a Columbus suburb. It's good to see that the New York Times will be one of the hosts. The quality and relevance of the questions should improve substantially from what they were in the first three debates where the key economic issues played such a minor part.
The key issue to Ohio citizens should be the huge and continuing Income Inequality Expansion which is at the core of many critical problems the US faces.
While increasing the US federal minimum wage will help here, there is a much broader and critical problem that needs to be solved. The annual percentage increase in the pay and employee benefits of Company non-executive employees are minuscule in relation to that of Company executive employees and this has been going on for decades. When Corporate CEOs and CFOs primarily view non-executive employees as a Cost rather than as a Person, this is what happens. And neither political party has had the courage to take on US Corporations here.
Thus I will be doing research and making posts on the average pay and benefits raise per year that the Top-Tier Executives of large Ohio Companies were rewarded with in the past ten years.
The second Company I am addressing here is Procter & Gamble.
From annual compensation information contained in Company Proxy Statement filings with the US SEC, the chart below shows Procter & Gamble's Top-Tier Executives Annual Total Compensation for each of the two consecutive full years of employment for the past ten years.
Procter & Gamble's Top-Tier Executives Average Annual Pay and Employee Benefits Increase was 7.4% per year during the past ten years.
