"Ted the Bush administration may be pro-business, but that isn't the same as free market."

Well it is when it comes to business operations.


That response doesn't make a lot of sense. To the extent I can pull any meaning from it the statement is false. "Pro-business" often takes the form of actively supporting business through government intervention, which is anti free market.

Businesses knew they were under much less scrutiny and took advantage of it.

The actions where legal. There was nothing for government to scrutinize. There was a loophole in the private sector credit scoring methods that is now being responded to by the private sector.
