We need high taxes on high levels of 'earned' income, especially executive compensation.

Incorporation and hence limited liability are special privileges to investors. If investors were responsible financially for the bankruptcies of the entities that they own as shareholders, then the privilege that justifies the corporate income tax would vanish.

I really hope Obama's 2nd term isn't filled with "Look at this cool thing we could've had if you guys hadn't voted Republican"

I hope it is actually.

It's all about 2016 -- whether America is to be a democracy or a plutocratic oligarchy.
