This only applies to executives so everyone else can still make whatever they want without even needing a loophole (and the minority will likely find a loophole)

In addition, the public backlash over CEO Salaries endangers the government's ability to bail out the firms in the first place.

 Not to mention the backlash against the company, although that depends on the product

This could also be partially an attempt of Obama to win back the media debate from the Republicans -- the GOP is going to have to look long and hard at this, their friends at the WSJ editorial board won't be happy if they back the politically popular side of this debate
