This “crony capitalism” is not Capitalism at all. It is a soft fascism.
Many “conservatives” don’t seem to understand this. They equate any and all corporate activity with capitalism. It ain’t so.
The main reason why the Republican establishment HATES the Tea Party as much as the democrats is because bth the Republican Establishment and the Democrat Establishment are in the back pockets of these crony capitalistic giant international corporations.
The Tea Party is a threat to their own corporate power structure. They are all in bed together.
