" No it isn't. It comes from their employers."

It comes from profits made by trading stock and getting a huge tax break that you or I do not get. The situation can only be righted by disallowing Hedge funds from claiming the salaries they get are cap gains or by making such people pay higher rates...

And bear in mind Joe Sixpack doesn't buy into hedge funds... I question the value of hedge funds to our country and it's economy..
