You are missing the point. We aren't debating math concepts here. We're talking about the unprecedented crony capitalism of the Bush admin that put oil company profits front and center in crafting our foreign policy.

So.. now the US taxpayer currently owns 70% of GM and the UAW has made out far better than the bond-holders, all on Obama's watch.

How many energy companies have been taken over by the government, and restructured with taxpayer dollars?

And look at the percentage of profit in the wind and solar industry being subsidized by Obama..

Don't tell me about "crony capitalism". Obama is using taxpayer dollars to create a command economy that suits his misguided environmental and political agenda.
