"Government looting" is a far more serious problem than "corporate looting". Well the farm bill was 190 billion, I am calling that corporate looting but you may call it government looting, so it could be just semantics. The medicare bill is corporate looting, perpetuated by the Bush admin, because a simple free market clause on the canadian drugs would drop the cost of that package by 70%. Energy bill... I guess that is half gov half corporate. The one group that really is a miniscule part of the overall pork in the budget are the "welfare queens" people harp endlessly on. Welfare money is not all that significant in this Bush porkfest. With Bush, its all stealing from the middle class to give to the rich.
