Corporate Socialism is the worst form of socialism. Poorly run companies with oversight by corrupt and incompetent politicians stealing money from the tax payer to continue the largely fictional perpetuation of our economic system- The "Too Big Too Fail" Myth encourages big companies to cry poor to Uncle Sam, who then in turn pays them to stay in business. The housing and credit debacle that is currently happening to this country is just the beginning. When deadbeats know they're bullet proof and multi billion dollar corporations know that outside of some public shame there are no consequences to failure, what possible utility is accomplished by bailing them out? What incentive is there not to fail?
The shamelessly evil scumbags in Washington are using this opportunity to make the entire country hopelessly dependent on the government-- Politicians will have all the power, control all the money and will independently navigate where we go from here. Just like the first post that began this thread, we are all going to be F students and the government is going to be the Professor handing out the grades.
Scary, Scary stuff.
