Running out of gas and making money off of it.
Richard Heinberg, via James Wolcott, via Avedon Carol... "it's not exactly reassuring to know that, as with 9/11 and Katrina, George Bush has been told - and doesn't seem to care."
Dear Leader isn't alone with his policymakers in this, on any given day 95% of our elected representatives in Congress are acting the same way. Democrats or Republicans, they're both exploiting their constituents, and the difference is only one of degree. Admittedly, if you're scimming a few hundred billion out of the Treasury, you're a bigger crook than if you're only scamming Uncle Sugar for a few hundred thousand here and there.
But if you're creating a system that enables Halliburton and DynCorp to set up global feudal empires so your casino buddies can operate legally in the desert without hassle, guess what? That's aiding and abetting all the crimes all down the line.
