I would say there are a ton of factors that influence how much a CEO gets paid.

I worked for a large corporation and the CEO makes at least 100x what I do, but she is also running a company of 150,000 employees, so I don't feel devalued at all. I'm paid quite well.

100x is nothing these days. Now the ratio is 399:1 or thereabouts.. and often even higher. Of course, there is no perfect ratio - but there is a point at which it becomes obscene. It varies from organization to organization.
