So much for big and bigger government, and big and bigger business. It won't work. Never has and never will.

Nothing wrong with big and bigger business. From what I can see in this article, it is when government and business start walking hand in hand, this is when problems start. Enron would not have gotten to where it is without using the government to further its interests.

Government regulation creates the conditions by which businesses need lobbyists in Washington to look out for their interests. This then creates an atmosphere for big business to use government to further its interests. For example, anyone care to discuss how the Microsoft lawsuits started?
