just pointing it out gets you shamed and ridiculed - but its a fact

Even Fortune magazine referred to to growth in CEO compensation as "obscene" vs. Employee pay
But we are expected to NOT TALK ABOUT or even look at that

Hedge fund managers’ compensation makes me madder than CEO pay. That “carried interest” tax break is a real racket. Do something about THAT, Chuck Schumer.

Why would he do that to his own constituents?

I know it was...it's the entire Democratic establishment from Clinton to Booker. If you keep this up you're going to end up appreciating the majesty of red turf too. :mrgreen:

While Schumer has his constituents' back in D.C., the boys in Albany treat them as a public bank. Income and property taxes are out of control in New York. Saw a story that Mario Gabelli may be moving to Florida, and taking his operations with him. I'm sure he'll still donate to Schumer, though.
