If You Need to Puke, Look to the NYT for Help

It was only a matter of time until someone came out arguing on behalf of those poor economy-destroying financiers whose pay Obama wants to limit to $500,000 a year. Turns out that's just not enough money for someone living in New York to get by on! There's the nanny, the private school, the summer home, the ski trips, the chauffeur, the personal trainer, the Brooks Brothers suits, the kennel for the dogs, the $8.50 frozen hot chocolates. Obviously the taxpayers must help rich folks kowtow to other rich folks and maintain a minimalist lifestyle! Bow down, middle class people whose children attend public school, and pony up so that rich execs' daughters can have ponies! If you need us, we'll be cleaning puke off our discount shoes, using only the knowledge afforded by a tutor-free public school education.
