It is Clear that Politicians only believe in government. The current (R)epublican administration is working on a sub-prime bailout, which we indicated would only exacerbate the problem. When the bubble was over-inflating, the free-market was working. When the bubble bursts and the market corrects, the free-market is working. If you believe in the free-market, you take the bad with the good. Unfortunately, politicians believe in nothing more than power.
THE chameleons of the free market never cease to amaze. When things are good they worship at the altar of deregulation. When the market turns bad, they squeal like stuck pigs and are first in line for a government leg-up.
