“I don’t believe we are discouraging talent…”

According to Obama’s pay Czar, Kenneth Feinberg, that is. As the story explains, this comes on the heels of [the government agency know as] AIG’s CEO Robert Benmosche considering his resignation.

Being that he is in charge of so many different salaries, and that those who want to escape his diktat practically have to leave the entire industry, he acts like an absolute monarch. And, as a matter of fact and logic, he was no way of determining whether he is or is not discouraging talent; so the statement, aside from being pompous and assuming, is completely nonsensical.

Funny how propaganda works. Some know-nothing bureaucrat is put in charge of bankers’ salaries, and then flippantly declares that he doesn’t believe he’s driving away talent. Incredulously, the news media reports it without comment. Is this really the goal of “objective” news? To formalize propaganda? Or, is the average reader looking at this headline and thinking: gee, it’s working just like Obama said it would! No more millionaires, and a fairer society!

Of all Obama’s czars, and there are many, Feidberg is certain the most odious.
