>> Concentrating wealth leads to corruption in government. You're making a pretty big leap. Corrupt politicians, like Obama, Pelosi and Reid are what causes corruption in government. Or like many in Clinton's administration, who were about as bad. OTOH, the Bush administration was built on integrity from the top down, and that's why there was no corruption there; it just wouldn't have been tolerated. Huh?! The Bush administration let New Orleans drown. Water bottles were ending up in ID. Two weeks after the levees gave way the medical ship was still en route. Brownie's was trying to find a blue shirt at Nordstroms so he would look good in his photo op. Bush undertook two wars both of which became disasters. There was the mess at abu graib, there was the torture and killing of innocent Afghans like the 22 year old taxi cab driver with 4 kids and a billion dollar embassy built in Baghdad. There is still money missing from Iraqi's coffers thanks to the Bushies. To keep the budget deficits from looking worse then they were, war expenses were not included with the rest of the budget. Cheney met regularly with oil execs behind closed doors. Nepotism was the order of the day and none of his appointees were watching the store, allowing the worst economic crisis to hit this country in 70 years. He gave the rich a tax holiday allowing the budget deficits to grow. And these are just examples off the top of my head.......there are so many more. May be in your world this is good gov't but not in mine. And I don't know what you want to call this..........corruption or incompetence or both.......but seriously you need to rethink your position.
