Imo Jefferson would not think of the CEO of LEH's efforts as "work," though he did get handsomely compensated for whatever the hell it is he did.

Or the bonuses to bankers that will be paid from taxpayer funds ... that is taking from those who do work and giving to those that don't.

I have no problem with spreading that wealth around.

With respect to those who actually WORK, they won't pay any more in taxes under Obama.

/I work as little as possible myself
//speculating on stocks can hardly be considered "work"
