Your idea of just giving huge tax breaks to billionaires and gut government revenue and gut support for the disabled and elderly will just cause large corporations to create monopolies as they will have all the power to write anti-trust laws and the government wont have resources to enforce laws that benefit consumers anyway.
Funny how some people interpret government shouldn't be able to limit compensation between agreeing parties as the government should have the power to take money from citizens and give it to corporations. It's like they live on bizzaro world.

The effects of your policy of gifts to the billionaire class is massive increase in inequality. You think thats fine, as no one is entitled to anything. But you fail to understand that you have to choose between massive inequality or democracy. You choose massive income and wealth inequality.
You are the one who ignore the weakening of anti-trust laws and want corporations to steamroll over the people with your support for weak, defunded and ineffective government made up of puppets of the billionaire class. Why do you think the richest people in the country support your agenda and fund it? They want more power for themselves and see government as the only potentially democratic institution in society, so it must be weakened, unlike corporations which are top-down dictatorships. That is government's big flaw according to these plutocrats, as democracy is a threat to any system of power.
Rob Marcus worked for Time Warner Cable for about two years and gets $92 million in severance when the company is sold. Time Warner Cable was bought out by another company recently.
Seriously, I wonder why citizens aren't out in the streets with pitchforks.
Where's your outrage over the huge compensation by the A-list Hollywood celebrities.

the price of cable going up for many houses- like people are not struggling now-

Wow, the politicians sure have you fooled. I bet you'll run to the polls this November in the belief that you're going to elect the people who will make everything equal.
Meanwhile, they are lining up their next big deal while laughing at the likes of you.
Let's see here, as the government continues to gain more control, corporate power increases, the middleclass declines and politicians become millionaires, you appear to feel this cycle is great.
You don't even seem to realize that these politicians have mandated thst you purchase a product from corporations they choose who contribute to their campaigns and personal fortunes. They love people like you.
Meanwhile, as the billionaire class scratch the backs of each other, the working class declines, and continues to defend their overlords. What must it take for real change to occur?
Ahh but there will always be those out there who will continue to lick the bottom of their boots and worship them even when they are homeless and destitute.
They are just as bad as those who blindly supported and enthusiastically cheered for leaders like Hugo Chavez or Fidel Castro.

several years ago Phil rivers signed a contract for 96 million dollars.
the kardashians buy 40k purses
if some company offered you a huge bonus would you refuse it ?
colleges charge 40k for one year's tuition...where is the outrage?
Hillary gets multi hundred thousand dollars for a 1/2 hour speech.
now which actor gets 10 mill per movie? where is the outrage?
Obama loses 50 mill on a bad investment in solyndra, where is the collective outrage for that truckload of taxpayer cash down the drain?
Unbelievable. if you're not at least somewhat disturbed about this, but are pissed off every single time minimum wage wants to be increased, you're part of the problem.
