Remember when teachers, public employees, Planned Parenthood, NPR and
PBS crashed the stock market, wiped out half of our 401k's, took
trillions in TARP money, spilled oil in the Gulf of Mexico, gave
themselves billions in bonuses, and paid no taxes? Yeah, me neither.

I'd much rather be a champion of the powerless than a lickspittle of the
powerful.

those unions and public employee's are very responsible for the excess of
Wall Street. The big Pension funds have control of most of the publicly
owed corporations. they only have to vote to oust the board when the board
issues large undeserved bonus or salary. Would correct the excesses in not
much more than a year.

Heck, I remember when this was an actual boating newsgroup.

Total bull****. The total amount world-wide dollar amount that is
controlled by pension funds is about $6T. They're mostly have
influence and play in the stock market.

Why do you hate corporate America? Corps are controlled by their
boards. That's a fact of life. Do you want the gov't to GOD FORBID
regulate them?

The large salaries, gross though they are, are a tiny fraction of the
problems on Wall Street.

Evidently you don't have a soul. Or, at least not much of one.
