We sure do crony capitalism. But it is more than that, the heavy touch of this administration is all over the place. Then they lighten up for their friends. Wal-Mart gets an exemption on ObamaCare, then makes silly announcements with Michelle. GE broacasts multiple Obama booster channels, agrees to by thousands of Volts, but gets many rewards in return. There’s so much backscratching going on it feels like we’re in the primate house at the zoo.
some of my friends are calling the crony capitalists the ‘ruling elite’ (the ‘elite’ term is just too special for me.
We’ve always known the powerful protect the powerful but they’ve never been so blatant until now. They lie, cheat, and steal with impunity. When confronted they actually deny any and all allegations despite all the evidence.
We may have crossed the rubicon.
Are there enough who believe in individual liberty and economic freedom to overcome our lot or do we proceed to become a second rate country, a society of lies we tell ourselves?
