President Obama is not the only one who is upset over the huge bonuses the Wall Street honchos voted for themselves; with the exception of the beneficiaries, the American public seems to be furious, and rightly so. After all, these are the people who have single-handedly brought the American economy to its knees.
A guest on one of the cable channels suggested that Obama give the Street people a deadline to return their bonuses to their employers. Those who do not, he proposed, should be federalized, drafted and sent immediately to do combat duty in Iraq and Afghanistan. On second thought, this is not a bad idea at all.
