Re: How sad if much needed health care reform doesn't pass because of this

When businesses take government handouts, then absolutely does the government have a right, and the responsibility, to address issues such as this. In the absence of such government assistance (which I wholly opposed from day 1 as it is an affront to the tenets of free market capitalism), then private corporations are free to do as they wish, regardless of how ostentatious their actions might be. Frankly, I wish greed weren't such a prevailing factor. I wish American executives earned pay more in line with their counterparts in Europe or Japan. But I do not support the government stepping in to regulate pay. Again, free market capitalism is far more productive (and yes, subject to abuses) than other forms of economies. JR
