I KNOW many RIGHT leaning friends who will call this idea UNCONSTITUTIONAL but for different reasons than I.
I THINK WE HAVE ENOUGH DAMN LAWS
Being a Liberal I have to say you should not cap the money anyone can possibly make. In principal and in fact I don't think it is a good idea. Sounds a little too socialist, even to me.
Laws should be used only to protect the public....Not to protect the public from outrage.

Well, why don't you start? When you work, (I assume that you do), do you keep only enough to feed yourself, and give the rest away?
Because if you buy anything else, like a house or some clothing, then you are bettering yourself, and taking that extra dollar from many in the world who don't even have food.

Anyone who believes wages should be capped is a communist. All these young idiots occupying Wall Street have no clue what they're asking for. Herman Cain is right. They're barking up the wrong tree. Obama and the socialist Democrats are the root of their problems.edit on 10/10/2011 by linux2216 because: Spelling
Hear hear! You sound like a libertarian! Rules and regulations are the weapons of bureaucrats and big government supporters. What kind of whacked out world do we live in where people are begging for rules and restrictions on their lives?

Why should these corporations be allowed to benefit at the expense of the people in our country?
