John Merline Writes in Investor&#8217;s Business Daily Income Inequality Rose Most Under President Clinton, 11/3/11
Excerpts:
Meanwhile, during Clinton&#8217;s eight years, the wealthiest 5% of American households saw their incomes jump 45% vs. 26% under Reagan. The Gini index shot up 6.7% under Clinton, more than any other president since 1980.

Here is my two cents on the debt ceiling negotiations:
It is a spending problem and it is a growth problem. Past solutions have delivered on tax increases but failed to deliver on spending cuts.  It is clear that increasing tax rates do not often yield increased tax revenues. It is jut simple proven economics.

With the clarity of time we can look back at the brink of the collapse that hit us just prior to the last national election.  In the midst of the collapse we were stunned and angry, and tended to blame the party in power. Although the Democrats had controlled both houses of Congress since 2006, [...]]]></description>

&#8220;Fannie and Freddie played the political game even more fiercely than their opponents, spending millions of dollars on armies of lobbyists on Capitol Hill. Each company was a revolving door for the powerful in Washington- both Republican and Democrat. Newt Gingrich and Ralph Reed, among others, worked as consultants for Fannie or Freddie; Rahm Emanuel [...]]]></description>

Wall Street&#8217;s financial leaders have been paraded before Congress to explain their efforts to restore stability to our financial system. Obama has turned on the populist spigot to demonize Wall Street to justify bigger taxes and fees and hip shot regulation.
Wall Street deserves the scrutiny and reform is needed.  Yet this fiasco was as much [...]]]></description>

We clearly need financial reform. Yet Obama&#8217;s reckless, populist, anti-business pronouncements only serve to harden the prevailing attitude that business growth and job generation is just too risky.
Financial reform should be thoroughly vetted and discussed in the appropriate House and Senate committees.  Piecemeal pronouncements only add to the uncertainty that is killing this economy. The [...]]]></description>

There are those who see our financial problem as a moral failure. In one sense it is, but not in the sense those who wish to frame it in moral tones believe.
To blame greed for the meltdown is simplistic and irrelevant. Greed has been with us forever. Why would it appear in its ugliness now?
