Option D: 'They shouldn't.' Wow, that's the kind of bold, outside-the-box thinking I like to see. Next question: 'Should the compensation department just take a long lunch and let the interns handle it?'

C is an interesting option, but it's a bit of a stretch. Surely we shouldn't be exploiting global pay disparities for the company's benefit, right? That's just bad karma.
