Thoughts

In classic blogspot fashion when I went to publish this it deleted.
In classic BlakeGray fashion I forgot to ctrl+c it first

Yes, the stimulus saved current jobs and provided for future jobs.
Yes, but at the cost of current and future jobs.

Occupy wall street does not like how much "wall street" makes,
they also frame as the principle reasons of this problem the policies of Bush and Reagan.
Wall Street made more in the first 2.5 of Obama than in all 8 years of Bush.

Romney won't win because.....
he is not a "conservative republican" - The Evangelist
he is wierd - Obama Campaign Team
Insert instead "He is Mormon" and you get the same argument

Jack Welch is one of Obama's key men
Jack Welch took home $550 Million from 1997-2000
Jack Welch made an additional $200 Million in sale of stock options, selling most shares at $55 dollars a share before the value plummeted to about $23 today.
Now he makes a measly $357,000 from his pension and $377,000 for his consolting services, PER WEEK!
Maybe it is easy to stand by while your leader lambast selfish and unethical CEO's while continue to get rich. So when Obama or Jack are on the trail blasting selfish and unethical CEO's remember,
Jack Welch is one of Obama's Key men

The top five CEO's took home 4.8% of Corporation's profit in the 1990's (kind of ridiculous)
The top five CEO's took home about 10.3% or all Corporations profits around 2010.(Really ridiculous)
What is it that enabled or allowed the top 5 CEO's to take 1/10 off all profits home. ALL PROFITS created by ALL employees of the corporation. Madness.
