Obama tells off Wall Street
I work for a large company that seems to "cost cut" on a monthly basis, and yet our executives are paid more and more ridiculous salaries while getting crazier and crazier benefits (does your job include a plane to fly your son to prep school?). So today's talk of Obama calling the bonuses paid out on Wall Street "shameful" made me love him a little more. I really don't see any way for these absurd salaries to be curbed in corporate america (because this sort of absurdity exists across all industries) but it does make me feel a little better that maybe one of these executives sitting in their golden bathtub lamenting the decline of their nest eggs from $100M to $50M is at least embarrassed.
I hope there will be a way to help the middle class fight this sort of greed - it's just not right that someone who works their whole life getting paid a decent wage can't afford to send their kids to school or even pay their mortgage, let alone retire safely or have enough health coverage to not be afraid to go see their doctor.
I don't know that way though, and don't think HOPE is going to do it. How do you un-teach a culture of greed?

Great Question you ask... "How do you un-teach a country of greed?"
It will take the education of our next generation to lead our 'generation greed' out. This is a lofty goal , very ambitious indeed, but it can be done. We start with our future, our children.

Yes, I agree with everything to a T. I loooove Obama, GOOD TIMES ARE AHEAD!
Could you please update this site more? This is the most recent post and its from January. I have seen far too many anti-Obama sites and explinations about how he is burning this country to the ground. I need evidence to prove me otherwise, and I can't seem to find websites listing his accomplishments while in office, only his mistakes.
Yes we will be placing a comprehensive list of everything good BO has done and will do... Please let me know if you have any additional information or contributors that would like to author on this blog.

So quit and go work for someone else! If you live in America then you're most certainly not chained to your station. You're free to do whatever the fuck you want!! Go find another employer that's not so "greedy". Better yet, start your own fucking company and treat all of your employees the way you think they should be treated. If you're an American, I would assume you're not a fucking moron and you can make your own choices, but maybe I'm jumping to conclusions. Maybe you can't think for yourself and you need a socialist politician to do the little things for you. Maybe you ARE a fucking idiot. I hope not, but if you don't realize that you can quit your job and go somewhere else, maybe you do need to be breast fed by an extension of the government. While you're sucking on the government's tit, the rest of us will be securing our future by making big, grown up decisions!
