Big Business Did Well With Dems In Power

My point exactly! If the two parties remain in power, it will ALWAYS be business as usual.



The business community didn’t fare too badly during the first congressional session under Democratic reign.

The industries' closest brush with the new Democratic leadership came with passage of an energy bill that includes new mileage standards and a boost for alternative fuel development. And it seems business did all right.

Oil industries killed a tax package that would have cost them billions. The nuclear industry came out of the process with a government-guaranteed loan program that could jump-start construction in the industry.

Both parties are sold out to big business as far as I'm concerned. I don't see much difference in that area.
