Your example may not be the best, but your observation is spot-on. Yes, they do control our economy. No, they cannot be trusted. It is not, however, a necon, liberal, Democratic, or Republican issue. It's big biz and big government. Just like on-ramp so astutely points out. Not like that's any earthshaking revelation, but it seems many have re-constructed this as a big biz / neocon relationship. Hardley. Such as believe that are allowing themselves to be distracted by some of the major players in the game.
