IT'S TIME TO WORRY...

... when government exercises control over things that are none of its business. Here's the New York Times blurb about the latest: "The Obama administration will call for increased oversight of executive pay at all banks, Wall Street firms and possibly other companies as part of a sweeping plan to overhaul financial regulation, government officials said." And "other companies"? What's to stop Uncle Sam from trying to grab the reins of everything? Too many Americans are caught up in the populist rants about AIG et al... mostly hyped-up emotion that leads to giving up liberty for... well, for what? How private companies pay executives and run their businesses is not the business of the government.
