in addition,
this country, as a capitalist free democracy, can only run properly when the wealthiest & most powerful people behave responsibly. we cannot rely on the government to ensure AIG executives keep the financial system from melting down. there are already plenty of laws, & madoff happened anyway. & the way the rich & the corporations behave, thinking only of themselves & shareholders instead of american workers, it makes me think the rich deserve an 80% tax rate. if they are going to kill the middle class to enrich themselves, there may as well be no rich people at all.
We need to dig up reagan & get back to the basics in this country.
