Oh snap Vinney!

Give it a rest Vinny. They've had so much of our money and done squat except treat themselves to the high life. I say screw 'em and their cutesy slogans as well.

This ain't no should we do 'this' with Mike's money or 'that?'

How about I keep my money for change? Mooch off someone else for a while!

You are a High Frequency Trading tycoon?
I cannot afford to play that game.

If I buy a pair of shoes or drinking water, I pay a sales tax of between 7-10% on the purchase.

I think you wall street traders could afford to pay a 1% tax on your purchases ... and should.

I agree with Vinny. Shut down Wall st now. We have a government that can give everyone a much better, higher paying job than any corporation could.

Think of all the income taxes that could be raised.

Raise minimum wage to $50 an hour. Get rid of every last one of these evil corporations. They don't pay nearly what a good government job would.

I think it is time to boycott, every oil company, every electric company, every store including Walmart, Microsft, Apple, Fender, Gibson, and even McDonalds.

I done a lot of things in my time and built at least three careers in addition to music and military. But I've never been a wall street guy nor have I done brain surgery. (except on myself)

I zone out quickly when it comes to finance. I once fell asleep when a realtor was droning on about 'points' and such. "Mr Talbot," she asked, "Am I boring you?"

I replied politely of course, "Yes Ma'am."

I believe in the fee market and govt subsidies for musicians over fifty.

mike, is the "over fifty" for age or IQ??? because I'm pretty sure I qualify for the former.

where do I sign up????

I thought an 'over fifty' IQ requirement might present too much of a hurdle for most musicians.

Let's go with age.
