More bad news

February

The Dow dropped another 300 points today, and no one believes the economy will be getting better any time soon.

And yet today, two blogs, Politico and TalkingPointsMemo, were reporting on efforts to overturn caps on executive pay.

Congress added language requiring top earners in companies receiving federal bailouts to receive no more than one-third of their compensation in the form of bonuses. Firms taking a half a billion dollars or more would have to apply the limits to their top 25 earners.

When is Wall Street going to understand the anger people feel?
