You’re right, it’s not like you, or I, would be seeing any of those nice executive bonuses subsidized by our tax money anyway. We should definitely support the unfortunate execs that are barely by on only three bottles of wine vintage pre-1850 per month, having to had cut back from six.

Here’s to all the people making more money than they could possibly spend, and to the many more billions that they will take from all of this while I struggle for the next decade to pay off student loans.

I, for one, think this bill is a fantastic idea.

BTW… Rand Paul won the Rep Senate nomination in Kentucky…with a message…“I have a message, a message from the Tea Party – a message that is loud and clear and does not mince words – we’ve come to take our government back,” stated Paul to rapturous applause, adding that he would take on the special interests in Washington who treat the federal government as their own personal ATM.

“What you have done and what we can do can transform America,” said Paul, candidly warning that America’s greatness hinges on saving the country.

Paul added that America could be saved from its debt crisis “that is devouring our country and I think could lead to chaos.”
“These petty dictators say that to stop climate change it’s about ending capitalism, they are explicit, and the President by attending Copenhagen gives credibility and credence to these folks and he should not go,” said Paul.

Seems that Grayson has now showed who he really works for…Luciferian NWO

“…quietly passing a measure that is expected to be brought to the house floor as early as tomorrow .It’s called the Pay for Performance Act of 2009 ,under the proposal the government would impose pay restrictions on all employees not just top execs…Alan Grayson is the chief sponsor of the bill…that’s getting pretty Big Brotherish…” Grayson is not inadvertantly …he is a mole.

In fact, the last time I checked, the constitution expressly FORBIDS this. The Fourteenth Amendment states no government shall deprive any citizen of Life, liberty, or PROPERTY without due process of law.

Also, the 5th amendment states property may not be taken for public use WITHOUT JUST COMPENSATION

What shouuld be unconstitutional is your ignorance. The government would not impose something onto the private sector that they wouldn’t consider on themselves. Also, representatives vote in favor of the ideologies of their constituents. Try reading some history.
FYI. The Great Depression occurred when there was both a Republican Senate and House Majority. It only took 8 years to have that same majority bring us to the brink of a second Great Depression. Now ignorant individuals like yourself expect a new administration to repair the damage in less than six months. Get an education.
Back to the post. Try reading the article “Performance Pays for Federal Employees Still a Matter of Debate” from the Washingtonpost.com. This article explains that the pentagon will continue to move federal employees into a pay for performance pay scale program called Defense Civilian Intelligence Personnel System. Check your facts Dumba$$.

You, who obviously claims to be so adept at the interpretation of the constitution, are not considering the fact that the U.S. House of Representatives are not promoting the passage of the bill strictly under the capacity of the government. This, as other people who appear to be little more informed than you have mentioned, is a term stipulated by a lender that is forced to react to the greed and irresponsibility of the banking industry that is responsible for the economic collapse of our country. Moreover, the framers of the constitution did not anticipate a country so dependent on the financial sector so your demand for an interpretation would not be found. Rather than spew or regurgitate stubborn, ignorant, archaic, narrow minded conservative ideologies try evaluating the intentions of the representatives and thinking for yourself rather than repeating Hannity, Limbaugh or other racist bigots.

This bill is unconstitutional and it should have never been brought up. Rep. Barney Frank needs to read the Constitution and know that, De Facto Laws are unconstitutional, and so are Bill of Attainder laws. Barney Franks needs to be fired for incompetence, and for violation of the Constitution of the United States.

Read Sec. of Treas. Paulson’s plan. He designed it, and Congress and GWB approved it. The whole plan should be tossed out, but that is not what this narrow bill would accomplish.

Again, read Paulsons plan. It explains why these corporations can not get out of the agreement they signed.

Socialism is what your Faux Noise tells you is the goal. That is a lie, and there is no evidence to support that claim.

The liberal agenda goal is Social Capitalism. Where the need of the people are more important than the support of the corporations. It slows growth to sustainable levels. It takes longer to accumulate and consolidate wealth. It provides for the needs of all of the citizens.

If you want to exist on $600 a month in welfare, good luck with that. I will continue to pay my taxes and make a contribution.

Your comments are helping to raise money for the DNC to replace more Republicans in 2010. America thanks you.

America voted for change in 2008. Accept that or keep complaining. Either way, the Republicans will continue to lose elections. Capitalism did not make this nation great – Mercantilism did.

Everytime this nation is run like a compnay by Republicans, the Democrats have to step in to fix the damage.

I am surprised you think your opinion is still relevant.

I don’t ask for someone to take care of me. I believe we should abolish ALL tax deductions. Pay your share for the opportunity to live here.

Returning to the tax rates of 1955 would be a good start.

I am a mother of 5 children, I raised my children by myself for 15 years without money from the government and I worked hard to provide for them. They are now grown and they work hard.

I am still employed, however if your Socialism takes over ths Wonderful Country, I will stop working and let you take care of me, isn’t that what Socialism is all about? No, it doesn’t work that way does it, hmm? In Communist countries, which you are actually talking about because socialism has to exist before before communism can take over, there is absolutely No place for the weak, the disabled, the sick, the elderly, the lazy, basically what they call the non-producers. Hope you don’t fall into one of those categories.

Under the Constitution and The Bill of Rights you are guaranteed, Freedom, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

You are Not guaranteed that because someone else becomes wealthy that they have to take care of You!

Just remember no matter how little you have, there will always be someone who has less, which means you now need to take care of them, which leaves you less than you had!

Would you like to explain then, why many of these Corporations are not being allowed by the government to return the bailouts?

If you would study History, you would know that Socialism CANNOT exist unless there is first Capitalism! And exactly how do you think America became such a Great Country?

I believe in the United States Constitution and The Bill of Rights, perhaps you should read them and then if you do not like Capitalism, Freedom, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, don’t try to change America, there are other countries you will be happier living in.

Fortuneately, the majority of Americans disagree with yoou. You will still have the chance to lie, cheat and steal money for people – it will just take longer.

Capitalism is a failed experiment. The rest just look different to you because you believe in Capitalism.

The Constitution can be amended. Passing new laws is the first step, the second is judicial review. On what bench do you sit?

Corporations receive government welfare for every deduction the take on their taxes. When they accept a government loan to stay solvent, the lender can set the terms. The terms are being changed. Had the corporations not put a maximized profit before long terms health, they would need a government sponsored loan.

These corporations did pay for the legislators elected to enact deregulation. They got what they paid for, and are now reading the small print.

You are welocome for the change the majority of Americans voted for. Unfettered Capitalism is a failed experiment. It will be replaced by Social Capitalism, where profits are smaller, but the needs of the citizens come before the needs of corporations. We the people, not we the corporations.

Your version of Capitalsim is a failed experiment. Adjust for that. The majority of voters do not agree with you.

Many of the Bills that have been passed since January 20, 2009 are in one way or another in Violation of the U.S. Constitution and need to be repealed immediately! And some of the ones that are sitting there, waiting in Silence, un-noticed, need Never to be Passed!

Our politicians need to Stop passing Un-Constitutional Bills and need to go back through history, Yes, all the way back to 1913 and start repealing those that are Un-Constitutional! They need to do what they were hired by “We The People” to do.

It seems their LOVE OF POWER has over come their sense of Servitude! If there be any of them that have no willingness to fulfill the job they were hired to do “By The People”, and do it According to the Constitution, then I call for their resignation immediately!

Capitalism, Where Art Thou?
The U.S. Constitution, Where Art Thou?
Freedom & Liberty, Where Art Thou?
Honest Politicians who Aren’t in Violation of their Oath of Office, Where Art Thou?

This Bill is wrong and to go back in time just a little Mr. Secretary of The Treasury, what about bonuses you received from AIG and How Much were they Again?

Watch this video. It says it ALL. Cavuto interviews Grayson. Unbelievable!

Sorry, Lounap, I think this is just what the president and congress wanted. I don’t think they are going to “wake up”: their wide awake and lovin’ what were this is leading. And, God forbid, anyone try to mess with their compensation/pension.

This crisis has created a “Perfect Storm”. Now, as I read today, Geithner is saying he may have to move in replace other CEO’s. If Judge Nepolitano (of Fox News) is to be believed, he has heard from a CEO of a large bank that was NOT involved in the prime mortgage mess, did not request any TARP funds, and has over $275 billion in assets, and was strong-armed by the FED to take TARP money or face a very public, gruelling audit. He resisted but the bank’s BOD caved.
The Fed now owns 2% of the bank and wants to call the shots, and wants say on compensation and employment issues.
