Look: I’m willing to defend income inequality, sweat shops, child labor, tax cuts and the like, if the merits are there. I’d privatize everything but the army and maybe four other things if I had my way. In other words, I’m no softy on these issues. But am I the only one in the corner offended by Dick Grasso’s 9/11 bonus? I mean at a time when everyone was talking about sacrifice and loss, when we were touting the resumption of our normal lives as a patriotic counter-strike to the terrorist menace, Dick Grasso get’s a five million dollar bonus on top of his enormous salary because the stock market re-opened? I despise financial populism of any kind, but this just strikes me as galling.
