We haven’t had free-market capitalism in a long time. It’s crony capitalism, government/power brokers choosing winners and losers, and capitalizing the profits while socializing the losses.

Bain Capital underfunded the pension plans at these companies and then stuck the taxpayers with the bill.

Sad, isn’t it? But indeed quite true.

If you haven’t read “What is American Corporatism?” at FrontPageMag, I recommend that you do so.

You succintly and effectively describe what that article is all about.

Sad to see Dems & Repubs doing the same thing. Almost a one-party system...
