“I worked for Portland General Electric (PGE) Co., “

That explains why you don’t understand or approve of capitalism.

Those who benefit are many, but they don’t know who they are. Those who are hurt are few, and they know who they are.

I once thought Newt was a conservative. I haven’t since I saw him sitting with the Lady Nancy, talking about stopping global warming, when the evidence is pretty thin to nonexistent that it is actually happening, or that it is man-made.

“I once thought Newt was a conservative. I haven’t since I saw him sitting with the Lady Nancy, talking about stopping global warming,..”

Do you understand politics? Do you understand strategy?

In politics as in life, you don’t let others control any aspects of your life or organization, as it results in your being shut out of the decision making later on.

“For over two decades, Gingrich has taught at the United States Air Force’s Air University, where he is the longest-serving teacher of the Joint Flag Officer Warfighting Course. In addition, he is an honorary Distinguished Visiting Scholar and Professor at the National Defense University and teaches officers from all of the defense services. Gingrich informally advised Defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld on strategic issues,..and encouraging the Pentagon to not “yield” foreign policy influence to the State Department and National Security Council. Gingrich is also a guiding coalition member of the Project on National Security Reform.” [Wikipedia]

Note that phrase in there about not yielding influence - I strongly suggest you read up on Gingrich, as it is obvious you don’t know much about him. This man has probably forgot more about strategy and tactics than you even know.

As for YOU assessing my understanding or approval of capitalism, you are out of place, child.

Read what Gingrich says about his actions vis a vis that couch sitting episode before you shoot yourself in the foot, again.

That's not what she wrote.

Capitalism, of the honest, non-crony kind, is good. But that doesn't mean there are not evil capitalists, such as the two Kens (Harrison and Lay) who f'ed over a lot of other people, including apparenty SatinDoll.
