I remember the stir Barack caused when he had a discussion about success with Joe the Plumber.

Whatever success Joe had in life, it seems like Barack wanted to share it with others.

No matter how fast Joe runs on his plumber hamster wheel, Barack will drag him down, and 'share' his hard work with others that may not run so fast, or run at all.

All this for Obama liberal dreams of spreading the wealth.

Joe the Plumber, is a very small fish in the ocean of life.

What of TARP recipients?  Firms like Goldman Sachs?  They give away billions in employee bonuses and salaries. 

Does Barack have a plan to share Goldman's success with others?  Make sure all the little people in America, present and future generations, all those bodies behind Goldman's success share in the riches?  The bonuses?  The Cadillac healthcare plans?

What plan does Obama have in place to share the wealth of firms like Goldman Sachs?


Taxpayers bailed out firms like Goldman. 

The Treasury and Federal Reserve seem to have given firms like Goldman access to money that is beyond the imagination of ordinary Americans, and large numbers of Global citizens. 

From what I understand, firms like Goldman get special access to FDIC cash and taxpayer guarantees for their investments - risky and not so risky.  Goldman will not fail, taxpayers have their back, again.

Firms like Goldman participate in High Frequency Trading, making money on buying, owning, and selling all kinds of things in less than seconds.

Firms like Goldman have 'DARK POOLs' - anonymous trading, anonymous participants, and feature little if any reporting.

While Joe the Plumbers success is available for the plucking...

Do firms (and individuals) like Goldman report any of these trades to the IRS?  Profits? 

Do they make any transactions public?

How is Barack ensuring that the actions of the Treasury and Federal Reserve are ensuring that all these people that benefit from the money are sharing their success with all the little people on Main Street?

How is Barack ensuring that all these anonymous firms and people share their success with others?

Why aren't firms like Goldman treated the same as Joe the Plumber and his business?
