On the surface it seems crazy for Bush to push policies which will cause major disruptions and chaos.
It seems even crazier that his wealthy supporters would condone such actions.

There is time honored method to this madness. The policies of the Bush administration - exasperation of global warming - wastage of oil resources - unprecidented deficits and the worldwise unease from not knowing where he plans to launch a war next, are all disruptive to stability. It might seem that stability is just what a consertative would want, after all they generally happy with their position in society and don't want big changes which could upset that. That is not Dubya's core economic supporters.

Who benefits from chaos and uncertainty? It is the gamblers and those with huge resources to take advantage of the swings of opportunity that accompany chaotic times. In the land of milk and honey it is the cautious who are rewarded with adequate returns and longevity. A chaotic economic environment rewards those who thrive on the stress and have assets and cash to buy in the crashes and loan it out to others during the rebounds. It is the cowboys, and wildcatters, and speculators who do well when times are good, but do great when there is blood in the streets. These are bundlers who are amassing the hundreds of millions of dollars to help Bush create not a better world, but an even more uncertain and chaotic one.
