>>But, no doubt, the majority of government contracts in things like defense and homeland security go to wealthy Republicans So you're saying if a CEO is republican he or she is the only one that reaps the benefits of said contracts? What about the other employees??

<< I'm sure wealthy Democrats win those contracts as well. But, no doubt, the majority of government contracts in things like defense and homeland security go to wealthy Republicans. Despite Republican's suppossed aversion to "big government". >> Amazing! In all the years I have been investing, and they are many, I have never seen a manufacturing corporation described as Republican or Democrat. In fact, I think it would be very difficult to have a major corporation consisting of all Republicans--or conversley--all Democrat workers and management. I certainly shall have to peruse those 10ks and 10qs more diligently. I have labored under the misapprehension corporations were sort of gender neutral. Ken
