_Share the View_ -- _Bloomberg View _

A Quick Look at Bloomberg News's Opinion Section for May 10, 2012

_EZRA KLEIN_: Senator Richard Lugar’s concession speech echoed Thomas Mann
and Norman Ornstein’s Washington Post column two weeks ago on political
dysfunction: Polarization is a serious problem, and Republicans are largely
to blame. [Link]

_A.A. GILL_: "Shareholder Spring" has come to London. Angry shareholders now
see artificially fattened executive pay not only as a "serious drain on
resources but as intrinsically bad for business, bad for the market.”

_SAM SHERRADEN_: China’s financial liberalization, including currency
reform, is not a sop to the West -- it's a sign of the country’s insecurity
about the future. “They are defensive steps intended to protect the economy
from a coming slowdown and possibly to boost domestic asset prices.”

_CAROLINE BAUM: “_What happens if the monetary authority misdiagnoses the
cause of high unemployment and uses its usual tool, the printing press, as a
cure?” [Link]

_THE EDITORS_: A case of mad-cow disease in California “reveals a system for
U.S. food safety that still needs improvement, not just to prevent mad-cow
disease, but to curtail outbreaks of food-borne illness that sicken 48
million American a year.” Obama signed the Food Safety Modernization Act in
January 2011, but rulemaking for the law has been bogged down in the
administration. [Link] And in India _THE EDITORS _write, changing tax law
to increase taxes on foreign investors is the wrong way to attract needed
capital. [Link]
