It's a shame more companies aren't formed so that the CEO gets their majority share of stock in their company, and cannot ever buy or sell ANY of their own stock.
This would make his only source of income from that stock through dividends, which get distributed to all the owners of that stock, as well as the CEO. If he wants to line his pockets, he has to give his investors their percent of what that CEO wants to take from the company. This would drive people to actually buy stocks for that company that is doing well, since they would actually get dividends from it, and the market would work the way it is SUPPOSED to in this particular case.
