This is my recommended slogan for OWS. The principle issue is fairness. By placing a limit (50 to 100 million is my estimate) on the of money any one can accumulate much of the problem would be solved. The greedy bastards will have to find other things to do, like play golf.
What's fairness? Any society that pushes fairness over freedom will have neither. Most countries would cap you maximum income at $3 an hour, if they had their way. That would be fair to them. It's relative. Stop trying to cap other people's income and worry about yourself instead.
50 to 100 million? That's some cap. I hope they won't starve to death.
