Good article. With this current set of foxes guarding the chicken coop--Oil company lobbyists staffing the EPA, etc.--, the things that are being done in the name of free enterprise and American capitalism are resulting in shifting the risks of the economy to the poorer and working classes and shifting the profit to the richer and leisure classes.
