Opinion - NYT Article on Transaction/Bonus taxes

Cause the Times never met a friggin' tax it didn't like. Last time I looked, the banks did absolutely nothing illegal. Government failed to nationalize them when they should have, then everyone gets their collective panties in a bunch when they do exactly what they're supposed to do which is - wait for it...it's coming...

Make money!!!

And why wouldn't they pay the bonuses out? However you might feel about it, there's not a goddamn thing that's illegal about paying bonuses and salaries, unless we suddenly woke up in Putin's Russia?

And, I'm not a constitutional scholar, but I'm betting it ain't quite kosher to single out group (like bankers) for special "treatment" in the form of a tax.

Stop spending people!!!
