Thats not really neocon thinking, as I see it... neo-con thinking seems to me to be more about big business protectionism, rather than free markets and all out deregulation. They love regulation, just as long as it's designed to create artificial and insurmountable barriers to entry in markets where their buddies are already established. Monopolies and Oligopolies propped up and enforced by government are the neo-cons bread and butter.
