I am not sure I support wage controls for CEO's.

However, something is going to come to pass very soon in this department. Be it good or bad, I am just hearing too much about unemployed Americans and jobs going overseas.

You know, Iraq is great... I am 100% in agreement with our mission there. Osama & the tallybastards too, they got what they deserved.. That's all fine and good.

But people can't eat that, or spend it and I think the next election will turn on kitchen table issues like jobs, the economy and other domestic concerns.

I believe the general consensus will be: "Yes, Saddam was a bad guy.. But that was yesterday. Today, the mortgage is due and little billy needs braces. George Bush doesn't care if my job went to China or India, and I want change.."

All the spin, all the hype, all the media coverage in the world will not pay the rent or send a kid to college. Americans need jobs and financial security every bit as much as much as they need homeland security and protection from despots like Saddam and his fruitcake pals.

Wow... what a brave position for you to take there.
