A new way of equalizing wealth

As you may have determined, I'm someone who feels that the awarding of wealth in the U.S. has reached enormously unbalanced levels. I've already pointed this out in the "Why Do You Work So Hard" article as well as the follow up "More on Why Do You Work So Hard", both of which pointed out the ever growing disparity in income levels as well as the shocking fact of a LARGE (37%) drop in Real Dollar value of the minimum wage over time.

So it's with tongue planted firmly in cheek that I point out that a way to take away some of the assets of those obviously earning more than necessary is for them to bid on the ability to partner with Tiger Woods in the 2009 Buick Invitational ProAm. (And speaking of loss of income, the proceeds benefit the Community Foundation of Greater Flint, a city fairly hard hit with the economic downturn of the latter part of the 20th century.) So, CEOs out there, pony up some of that 400+ times earning power and make a date with Tiger.
