Many companies pay out deferred compensation as it is a cheaper and easier way to get quality people. I am glad that Cheney and Bush have actually worked in the private sector. I believe it helps them better understand the economy and how businesses operate. I would much prefer somebody like that than a career politician that has no idea what it is like to make a payroll, go to a bank looking for commercial financing, etc., etc. A matter-of-fact, in my opinion that is what is wrong with the Democratic Party. They used to be called the "Party of the Working Man" because they knew what the working man was going through. Now the Democratic party is made up of career politician and attorneys that have no clue what the "Working Man" goes through. THEY are the party that is out of touch.
Very good point. Isn't it amazing that libs today prefer to elect to leadership those who have been career politicians and never done an honest day's work in their lives? Libs prefer to place into office socialist idiots who view the average American as a resource to be strip-mined while they are suspicious of those who have actually built a business, held a job, employed people, lived within a budget and did something with their lives besides kissing babies and tap dancing.
And I think that pretty much sums up the socialist french attitude too.
