Is it because their CEOs get paid less, their workers get paid more, or both?

This chart is a bit lol to me...in that hopeless what can i do about it type of funnyness. (Like the Clippers against the Steph Curry's in the 4th).
I think this chart would be more informative if it compared the average pay of all executives (management) to all non-management. CEO's make wild huge sums of money...but honestly they usually deserve it. Being a CEO of an American company is something that a tiny percentage of people do. Also the average pay is much higher for the U.S than most of those countries listed I'd think.
There are ~15,000 publicly listed companies, and we can guess maybe 10,000 relevant private companies. That is 25,000 CEO's out of 312 million people.
That is .008% of people in the US are relevant (to this data) CEO's. If we cut out half of that population to account for old, sick, weak, children, etc..it is still .015% (less than 1%).
Don't they deserve the money to be in that sort of elite level of individuals?
