**********the Democrats as usual are grandstanding. the limits on executive pay are most likely unconstitutional. just more wasted legislation intended to play on class hatred.*************

Where there is a written agreement between the companies and the Fed and the Fed is not reaching beyond the agreement the Constitution is not likely implicated.

As it regards other companies which are publicly traded I submit that you need to read the commerce clause information on the Cornell law website
www.law.cornell.edu/anncon/s...ndex.html
paying especial attention to Wickard v Filburn
supct.law.cornell.edu/supct/h..._ZS.html

I rather suspect that if the Fed chose to do so they could bring back that Wickard era level of intrusive reaching into private sector and quite literally use the commerce clause to regulate all publicly traded companies. Hell Arthur, I suspect that the Fed can regulate all salaries period.

The Commerce Clause is the single most powerful tool the Fed has to tell you what to do, all day, every day.
If you are engaged in any activity that in any way uses or bears on anything at all that is traded in interstate commerce the Fed can reach into your bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, cellar, your back yard, and your garden: and the Fed can regulate it.
I fear that one clause was poorly written by the Framers giving entirely too much power to the fed.

About the only place that seems immune from commerce clause interference are the thoughts in your mind and I am sure that some Democrat is trying to figure a way to regulate them under the commerce clause too. After all the things you can think are influences by and usually are a direct result of the things you learned and those things were at some time part of commerce: Books, Internet communications, education in schools - all of it might be reachable VIA the commerce clause.

It's always the Democrats who are using the commerce clause to infringe your privacy.

Never vote for fucking Democrat.
They are the most loathsome poisonous monsters anywhere.
