"This is an impressive crowd: the haves and the have-mores.
Some people call you the elites: I call you my base."
--George Bush to a white-tie dinner in New York in 2000
More than war and the deaths of hundreds of thousands, the presidency of Bush
has been about enriching the small minority of the very wealthy. From war
contracts to Supreme Court appointments, the paramount concern of this
administration has been returns to the top tier of big business.
The result has been growing and accelerating inequality, with the concomitant
impoverishment of Americans and people around the world. Now, in a final act of
expropriation, the administration plans to enrich the bankers beyond the dreams
of avarice by investing the secretary of the treasury with financial power that
fascist governments didn't possess.
Tell them no.
