Charlatan, to address Ustwo's micro question of Bush "socialism" you must look at the macro economics that actually underly his intervention. There really isn't such a state as a "free market" as long as the Federal Reserve can crank out more monopoly money to settle the markets, or a president can temporarily defer a greater credit crisis than we have now. The "little guy" about to lose his home isn't a consideration in this equation.
