Or should the unrestrained market decide what is, or is not, acceptable without state comment or interference?
Is the market deciding? These enormous CEO salaries are overwhelmingly the result of collusion between CEO's and executive compensation committees, who are usually also executives at the other companies the CEO in question serves on the compensation committee of.
Of course, the situation is much worse in the US.

This was something I tried to address long ago whilst advising banks in my role as a risk management consultant.
How'd that turd in the punchbowl go over?
