The stimulus bill passed by the House includes just about everything on the liberal Democratic wish list. All sorts of interests are lining up for a piece of it. Government has never been good at picking winners and losers, and it is mostly losers that are lining up.
It is worth noting that conservatives are the ones committed to free market capitalism. The capitalists are committed only to self-interest, untroubled by principle, and if that means dealing with the government or the devil himself, they’ll do it.
