Wall Street payoff is do or die

I don’t understand why the titans on Wall Street continue to provide financial support to a party and a White House that want to destroy them on their way to destroying the foundations of capitalism itself.  It makes no sense that the man who is restricting Wall Street pay through some half-cocked idea of a “Compensation Czar” now wants to cast the net even wider. 
Capitalists beware.  The president has spent entirely too long overseas in the confines of centralized economies, cuddling with world leaders who seem to get their way because the public hand feeds and cares for the masses.
Could it be that we’re missing something here and all this does make sense?  Why did the local businesses in the roaring 20’s support Chicago gangster Al Capone?  It’s obvious.  They did so not because they wanted to, but they had no choice.  In the famous words of the Godfather himself, who whispered, “I’m going to make you an offer, one you can’t refuse.” 
What on the surface appears to be irrational support of President Barack Obama and the Democrats by Fortune 1000 companies can only be understood, as a payoff required keeping them afloat in business.  Obama’s message to Wall Street (through his null, Rahm): support us or we bring your business down.
Think I’m kidding?  Just this week, headlines ran in “local Hill rags” stating, “White House Plan: Neuter the Chamber [of Commerce].”  Apparently, the administration doesn’t like the fact that so many businesses are pushing back against Obama’s plans for climate change, more regulation, higher spending that hikes interest rates and crowds out private investment.  So instead of heeding the call of the true job creators in this country and trying to work with them on initiatives, he wants to go around them, or run them in the ditch if they don’t see eye to eye with his agenda. 
White house communications director Anita Dunn is leading the administration’s stance against Fox News by stating Fox broadcast “opinion journalism masquerading as news.“  The White House will no longer talk to Fox News, the nation’s highest rated news network, because it criticizes the administration’s policies.  It is also asking the other network news organizations not to carry stories that Fox breaks.  Let us be clear.  The administration goes after its enemies.  This fact is not lost on Wall Street.
Look, I realize this country and its citizenry are fed up with million dollar bonuses at a time when folks are struggling, but a centralized structure where government owns all or part of the nation’s so-called private facilities of production is woefully the wrong path to economic renaissance.  If we as a nation look to the public sector as a lender/job creator/engineer of first resort instead of one of last resort, then the great American experiment of individual enterprise and innovation has failed. 
We are on a desperate trajectory toward becoming the European Union of the West, my friends.  It’s welcome at first in these tumultuous times.  But that hand up from the ditches of a depression-like economy will soon be replaced with a hand down – one that suppresses and stifles entrepreneurship and soothingly answers to criticism, “Don’t worry, I have your best interests at heart.” 
If Wall Street begins to buy that, we’re all in trouble.
