Reply #2: ah, the smell of corporate welfare in the air

[ixion]

CNBC and FAUX all atwitter because Obama may do something "socialist" like helping the middle-class homeowner. Yet nary a word about the bloated multi-nationals, who have been stifling innovation and competition for decades. When they need a few billion, our government is more than happy to share our money with them. It's just US -- the 'we' in We, the People, who are apparently not entitled to help.

In other words: it's a scam.
