I can't think of a single company in the history of mankind that has been "socialized" without becoming a bureaucratic, moribund, money-losing, pig that feeds at the taxpayer's trough. In fact, even employee-owned companies, once hailed as the boon of the new economy, usually go through a short, shooting-star existence. You socialists still don't get it, even after 100 years of failure. Go back to a Holland hash house and think about it.

Halliburton has been a true "pig at the trough" of gov't contracts. Cheney has been their gravy dispenser..........ever wonder why he got the job as CEO?...............connections, connections, connections and a mainline straight to the heart of the cash cow;ie, us. I have always wondered how the so called right wing"Christians" could so easily support corporate welfare while they bashed the giving of money to the underprivileged and otherwise needy. :>) Pat Everyone needs to make money in a capitalist society in order for that society to succeed. If most of the money remains in the hands of a few then anarchy will follow.
