Wage and price controls have ALREADY been tried, by that Republican "totalitarian", Richard M. Nixon! econreview.com I'd rather just see a maximum wage.

First of all, its hardly a move towards totalitarianism and a move away from democracy. Its not a move away from democracy. People can vote it in. It is a move towards totalitarianism, against freedom, toward extensive and unreasonable government control. As for a morale issue, what's morally wrong is a society where someone like A-Rod makes $26 million for playing baseball, or Paris Hilton spends a $1/2 million on clothes and accessories per year So I take it that you support the idea that government should legislate (your opinion of) morality?
