As i understand the hedge fund thing and i may be wrong, US hedge funds in order to prevent more of that market from going to London, need the favorable tax treatment. Sure i get pissed at that hedge fund manager throwing the million dollar birthday party but thats not my business. What i am interested in is keeping the financial markets here in the US and very profitable so jobs are created and guess what more taxes are paid. I like England but i dont need all that hedge fund business relocating there. Enough has already. The hedge funds do not employ that many people and the industry is not in danger of moving to London.
