We will have the best possible contrast and comparison of socialism and the free market -- much as Rush Limbaugh's proposed re-working of the stimulus package. John Galt will have come out to play!

Wunderbar!

Dream on. The govt. will want to "level the playing field" so their charges will not do poorly in the public's eye. So look for either increased taxes upon the non-bailees or reduced taxes on the bailed-out banks.

Good try though. Too bad you assume the govt will be hands-off from this point on.

Great minds think alike--that's what the rest of my piece said, too.

Cheers!
