There are some ignorant people out there...

So, I'm listening to Andrew Wilkow today. If you are a conservative and have satellite radio through XM-Sirius, he comes on at 1100CST M-F, and I strongly encourage you to listen to him. Anyway... big topic of discussion is government regulated executive salary caps for all business'. This is a pretty fucking stupid idea, and is just another example of the Uncle stepping way the hell out of bounds. But where it got interesting was the part where this guy calls in and among other auto-accident-inducing-what-the-fuck-did-he-just-say's, tells Andrew that publicly traded companies are owned by 'the people' as opposed to the shareholders of said company. Between that and a bit about how 'Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness' is why the government should impose salary caps on executives in the private sector, I almost pissed myself laughing. Where are these people getting their information? You could almost smell the KoolAid on dude's breath over the radio. Time to start digging that bunker.

I can see it if a particular company takes money from the gov as part of the "Bailout". There is no reason a compnay begging for mainey should pay their CEO's 20 gajillion dollars an hour. If they take the money from the fed then they should be paid a fed salary. Fuck them.

I concur Batt, the nationalized businesses who go to Uncle for handouts should be regulated into indentured servitude to show the rest of the country why Uncle needs to have his wings clipped.

Take Fed $$ - deal with Fed rules. Make own $$ - pay yourself whatever you want. Asshats who don't know what a Public company is - drive into a tree and spare us your potential spawn. *edit - millions drive into trees causing concern that Climate change is frying their brains...bailout to follow as tree manufacturing plants feel pinch of unprovoked attack...
