[...] Obama wants to control how much money business people make. So…. Someone in GOVERNMENT is going to decide if you make too much money or not. Personally, my own salary is based on my set of skills and my value to my company. Donovan McNabb gets his $1.2 million base salary for the same reason. I’m sure that in the finincial industry, there are folks that are absolute financial wonders, commanding high salaries because they’re worth it. Those folks are now going to be working for HSBC instead of Citibank. One might think that our banks might need all of the help that they can get. [...]

Ya’know, it’s funny. I am tormenting my present student with the unabridged audio book of Atlas Shrugged. A few years ago was one thing. But with each day that passes now, we are getting closer and closer to living the events of that book pretty much to the letter.

I do not worry for the employees, they will most likely earn twice their present salary. Look at the over paid under utilized Federal workers, I spent over 20 years at an Army Post as active duty NCO and saw first hand how the Federal employees get paid. May the bank employees can join the Union with the Federal Employees, talk about job security.

I ordered a vanity plate “US Isno1″

I say that if ‘they’ put compensation limits on all corporations, as soon as it is enacted, everyone in the USA should immediately go on strike.

Just like on 9/11 when the US economy came to a standstill, we can shut down this government and take it back from these idiots.
