I’ve been saying it all along. If you want to eliminate a lot of crony capitalism, just eliminate corporate taxes and most of the regulation.
The taxes and regulation provide nothing but incentive to pay off politicians. John Stossel makes a good case when talking about Microsoft. Before the government went after them on the anti trust thing, they paid nothing in lobbying. Today they spend $100 million per year.

Cain's 9-9-9 plan institutes a flat 9% corporate tax. That would help.
