Congress Out Of Control
Mar 18th, 2009 by MariaEvans
The Great Eye of Schumer will never stop searching for political gain.
…Congress warned AIG execs to return their millions in bonuses – or face a possible new law taxing those payouts at up to 100%.
“They should voluntarily return them. If they don’t, we plan to tax virtually all of it,” New York Sen. Chuck Schumer declared on the Senate floor.
The idea that our government may be passing “new laws” in a fit of rage that can wipe out “virtually all” of someone’s paycheck scares me. We all need to hope that the Great Eye of Schumer doesn’t turn on our source of income someday.
Schumer oughta check what a Bill of Attainder is …
nothing like feigned outrage when it comes to taking money from someone.
Amen. John. I agree with you Hube and add the constitutional prohibition of an ex post facto law. You can’t allow something after the fact.
