Mr. Craver now claims that laissez-faire capitalism will work if only
a few people behave rationally, because they will be the ones in
control.  This is why all owners of large businesses are scrupulously
honest, and never hire lobbyists to try and get legislation to form
legally enforced monopolies.  This is also why the auto industry
executives have always fully supported safety measures in cars.
This is why defense contractors always finish on time and on budget,
except in a few cases, where the company willingly takes a loss
without trying to change the contract.

WHY DOES TOM CRAVER ASSUME THAT NOBODY GETS INTO POWER BY USING
EVERY DIRTY TRICK IN THE BOOK!!!!
