    I'd like to say "Thank you" on behalf of capitalist everywhere. We capitalists are needed to help balance our increasingly socialist gov/society.

    Capitalism. With restraints.

    The Chicago School was wrong.

    Which is what we've had for quite a while now. There's a reason the federal bureaucracy are so damn big.

    I agree. But what I want to know is how come big business can do what they want, e.g. Haliburton(big time, no bid contracts), Wall St & Banks (& their bailouts)? Business has been allowed to become bigger than the gov, or have merged w/the gov(?), and the gov has allowed humongous mergers to take place(instead of dispersing them). Seems like all the fed bureaucracies do are provide lip service and push pencils.

    Then your beef seems to be with govt rather than big business. I agree big business and govt have become to cozy.
