The advent of the crybaby capitalist
August 11th, 2008 by Jonathan Maziarz in Current Affairs, Editor's Desk, News, Politics
What’s wrong with the economy? In a phrase, “crybaby capitalists.” These are the heads of major corporations that want no regulations for their industry, but also want the government to bail them out when their greed destroys the company. Amazingly, Republicans have been going along with this.
• The GOP is also pushing for a Big Brother-style employment verification system.
• Was the Constitution really meant to constrain government?
• The situation in Afghanistan is grim and getting grimmer.
• Sovereign wealth funds have a new American target: your house.
• New revelation about President Ford: he was a back-stabbing dirtbag.
• Scientists are closer to making that cloak of invisibility than you might think.
• Another thing to worry about: the iPatriot Act.
