Corporations, hedge funds and lobbyists got what they bribed the politicos to get. They paid millions in campaign contributions !
Middle class tax payers cannot compete with corporations. Even wealthy Saudis have more of a voice here that the voters. (Remember the Saudis got a free pass from GWB and were allowed to flee the U.S. after 9-11 __ ?)
Who were these wealthy criminals who bribed our politicians ___ ? George Soros for one. .
You have blinders on, just like a work horse.
Worldcom, Enron and Tyco were all buying influence before they crashed. BP is another example of a company that is actively donating to Democrats to gain favor.
Maybe the blame game is misplaced. In each of the above cases, they were buying Democrat congressman’s support.
Rep. Henry Waxman complained that GWB would help his friend in bailing out Enron. When it was clear GW was not going to do this Waxman then complained that GWB was failing American companies. Bush couldn’t win with either scenario but our country won by not bailing them out. So, what does 0 do? He bails out all his supporters and donors. Typical.
