Funny you mention it - there was a thread just yesterday giving Trump attaboys for coming out against corporate CEO pay. In that thread someone actually quoted Marx in support of his stance, and nobody could quite tell if he was being tongue-in-cheek.
Eminent domain for crony capitalists is bad...until Trump does it, and then it’s noble.
Getting shaken down then paying off Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton is cowardice...until Trump does it, then it’s “smart business.”
Planned Parenthood is evil, and life is the most important issue we face as a country...until Trump says they do good things for “the women”, and then social issues are a distraction.
I feel like Boehner and Mitch are missing out on a real opportunity - they should make a deal with Trump that they will pay him in camera time at every debate and convention (the only currency he truly values) between now and the election, and he’ll just parrot whatever they say. FReepers would trip over themselves toasting the Ohio River Geniuses.
Maybe CEO pay is too high. But I can’t imagine anything the government can do that won’t make the problem worse.
