"The Dems are captive to parasitic finance -- the bond market. They are against anything that reduces the surplus/increases the deficit. The Repugs have a leg in finance, but are also beholden to manufacturers, small biz, energy corps, and assorted criminal enterprises. Hence, rhetoric aside, the Repugs are better protectionists."
Hear! Hear! and let's remember that the Dems have relented in their protest against the "stimulus" bill now that it has a "fairer" (still obscene) "balance" of corporate pocket-stuffing to worker subsidies.
