Special interests? Crony Capitalism? No way! Not in the Bush White House. You might consider the following developments. There have been massive tax cuts for the already super wealthy. Big drug companies and the HMOs frame health policy. Oil and gas companies design energy policy. Corporations close to Bush and Cheney get lucrative Iraq contracts. Where will all this lead? Deficits and debt loom far into the future. Where is the money going to come from to cover the impending retirement of millions of baby boomers? Their social security, pension and health care benefits are at risk.
