OT: I don't understand why paying employees (or anyone else) in stock isn't inevitably going to be insider trading. It can hardly fail to obtain that sometimes insiders know non-public facts that would change their valuation of shares in the company, when deciding how much stock to pay someone. But insider trading law seems to me to be a joke anyway. It must be pretty difficult to enforce.
