Obama and Co to retroactively set salaries - STLouis Blazer - 03-31-2009 10:16 PM Seriously, this is complete bull****. Who in the world voted for this guy? Government controlled healthcare: in progress Government controlled automakers: complete Government controlled banks and financial institutions: in progress Government increased spending: complete Government desire to decrease military spending: in progress We're going to be France in a few years! Quote:It was nearly two weeks ago that the House of Representatives, acting in a near-frenzy after the disclosure of bonuses paid to executives of AIG, passed a bill that would impose a 90 percent retroactive tax on those bonuses. Despite the overwhelming 328-93 vote, support for the measure began to collapse almost immediately. Within days, the Obama White House backed away from it, as did the Senate Democratic leadership. The bill stalled, and the populist storm that spawned it seemed to pass. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/Beyond-AIG-A-Bill-to-let-Big-Government-Set-Your-Salary-42158597.html RE: Obama and Co to retroactively set salaries - Owl 69/70/75 - 03-31-2009 10:28 PM (03-31-2009 10:16 PM)STLouis Blazer Wrote: Seriously, this is complete bull****.
