While the United States Government suffers through one more downgrade from global bond-rating agencies, multinational corporations based in the United States are enjoyinf reasonable profits, despite variable profit margins.
The difference between the two is crucial to assessing the true nature of Big Business' role in the widespread economic morbidity afflicting this nation, which in fact is a result of Big Government in collusion or divorced from Big Business.
Money is not power, contrary to columnists Tom Petruno's estimation. Only in a scurrilous marriage between the state and the private sector does the United States endure Crony Capitalism, which contributed far more to the ongoing povery and stagnant yet high unemployment afflicting this country.
Would that government operated more like a private corporation. Perhaps we would witness a higher return on taxpayers' forced investment, with dividends in the form of efficient use and long-term savings against future budgetary shortfalls.
