Setting aside the fiscal lunacy of limiting executive salaries, the more ominous message oozing out of the White House is wage and price control for everybody. Irrespective of the fact and economic reality that everywhere and anytime that communism has been tried, it has proven itself to be a colossal failure, but that reality is apparently lost in the corridors of the White House.

But if the Treasury Department, now headed up by one of several Obama-appointed tax scofflaws, implements regulations that curtail the executives' salaries, there will always be at least 3 dozen talented and gifted CPA's that will figure out a way to reward these same executives with other perks. That what CPA's do, and have done since the illegal birth of the IRS, which then makes it a bastard agency.
