Agree. I support any measure that keeps money moving. Including cashectomies for windfall profits.

But why, in the name of fairness, isn't the surplus shared with all the stakeholders?

We wouldn't be in this pickle to begin with if profit sharing was the norm. Like when I was kid.

Sharing is socialism/communism/someother"bad"ism these days. It must be all about the invisible hand, the less intervention the better. Basically I see it as a bunch of greedy nuts who believe in things like low taxes, and only wince at overt things like primogeniture and unequal pay but then they pretty much do a "tee hee" and accept both because they benefit.

It's somewhere in the vicinity of neo-feudalism + neo-aristocracy + prosperity theology. It's an abomination.
