Really, when push comes to shove, they aren't nearly as principled as they pretend to be. They don't want Uncle Sugar out of their lives, they just want him on their side.

It's not so bad not being principled. It's not unreasonable to choose a different metric. The bigger sin is the hypocrisy. They can go ahead and be self serving, but they should put that flag of principle away in the attic for such time as it might come back into vogue and quit waving it in our faces while they mock it with their actions.
