Slashdot discusses | Google Founders Cut Salaries to $1

Slashdot : "GeneralCern writes "MSNBC Reports that Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, and CEO Eric Schmidt all [0]slashed their salaries to $1 last year. Since you do not have to pay FICA, Medicare, or income taxes
on the capital gains associated with stock sales, they stand to substantially decrease their tax burden. Is this a breech of the company's "do no evil" mission statement, or just an example of people who love their jobs so much they don't need to be paid to go to work?"
