RUSH: The real question is: Why are all of these CEOs of these major corporations supporting this thing in the first place? Well, the answers, sadly, reveal themselves. One of the first answers is fear -- fear of government retribution if they don't support or if they actively oppose. The second thing is, crony corporatism. Get in bed with the president's administration, get in bed with the Regime and get some kind of break financially, tax-wise, somehow.

That would be the second reason would be the crony corporatism or crony capitalism aspect of this. A third reason: The dirty little secret is these CEOs would love to off-load health care as something they have to provide. If they figure the Regime is headed towards single-payer down the road, "Let's help me them get there."

Everybody thinks that CEOs and Big Business are Republican and conservative and don't like Big Government. And it turns out, at least in health care, it's just the exact opposite. And now they want to try to lower their costs by demanding their employees be healthy and the Regime is gonna sue 'em claiming, "You can't do that! That's our job, to tell people what they can and can't do."

Corporatists and crony capitalists represent a vile economic ideology that thrives on and has a basis in corrruption and tax subsidies. Corporatists and globalists seek to destroy national sovereignty because it gets in their way of maximizing profits. It stifles their control over politicians and government. Conservatives are sometimes misled by corporatist string pullers into blindly accepting big business as a friendly partner. That partnership died with globalism.
