That's not what I was getting at. In fact I'm not even sure where that comment came from...

Have to disagree, lots of people are losing their jobs, losing their pay, in some cases losing their savings. Many of these people had contracts too. Contracts with the banks, contracts with their employers. They don't get bailed out.

Why is it that the little guy always pays and loses more (percentage wise anyway)? I agree, people should NOT be paid the same. But the rules SHOULD be the same to everyone.
