I think it is safe to say greed and corruption flourish under either party here in the US. Come on guys, really if Gore were president from 2000 to 2004 does anybody really believe the housing bubble would not have happened? Let’s be honest. If a republican were in office in the 90’s would corruption with the likes of Enron and other massive corporate fallacies not have happened? Look who are the biggest contributors to both parties. It does not matter who is in charge, the primary candidates from both parties are lobbied by the same corporate players.
I think it is very very possible to trace major systemic failures back to either democrat or republican previous presidents if one looks hard enough.
For me personally I am very disappointed with all of the candidates. Hillary scares me the most purely for selfish reasons such that I believe her candidacy will hit my pocketbook the hardest. That is not to say she is any more or less swayed by the lobbyists.
Personally I am a fiscal conservative and supporter of free markets like PW posted…. and yes a registered libertarian…
