I know of one entity whose business it is; the government. They could heavily tax him (or find new ways to do it), or even legislate top allowed compensations.

They don't do that now, but it's perfectly within their rights to do so if politics takes a hard left.

I don't see that happening the USA.

But we’re talking about pay, not taxes.

Of course the government could tax him heavily - that’s not the question at hand.
