Not really. "Big money" is often quite satisfied with simply looting
the bank.
Just look at the republicans and the federal budget.

Phony accounting and U.S. trade policy
Is Bush using Enron-like tactics to sell trade deals to the
public?
by Robert E. Scott
The U.S. has experienced steadily growing trade deficits for
nearly three decades, and these deficits have accelerated rapidly
since the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) took effect
in 1994 and the World Trade Organization (WTO) was created in
1995. The toll on U.S. employment has been heavy: from 1994 to
2000, growing trade deficits eliminated a net total of 3.0
million actual and potential jobs from the U.S. economy.1

Yup.........The Democrat Congress just FUCKED New Orleans in supplying
Money to Build Better Levees and Flood Defenses........And after all
of the Caterwauling and Whining the Leftist Sonsabitches did About
Katrina..........Ain't That TYPICAL of Democrats?............
"Jun 27, 5:27 PM EDT
N.O. levees squeezed by Congress' demand for cash
NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- The goal to raise levees and build large-scale
flood defenses around this flood-torn city could be delayed
indefinitely because of congressional demands that Louisiana chip in
$1.8 billion to the effort over three years.
Thursday night, Congress approved a $162 billion war spending bill
that included $5.8 billion for flood protection in the New Orleans
region. But the funding for Army Corps of Engineers construction
projects would be triggered only if the state agrees to a $1.8 billion
match.
For Louisiana, one of the nation's poorest states, the amount is
staggering. If the state is forced to pay, Gov. Bobby Jindal has
warned of "irreparable harm to our ongoing recovery efforts."

"Retirement".........Imagine that!..........

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -- The head of the Texas agency behind the seizure

"North Korea destroys nuclear reactor tower
Jun 27 01:15 PM US/Eastern
North Korea’s Nuke Program Up in Smoke
YONGBYON, North Korea (AP) - The gray cooling tower crumbled behind
billowing dust clouds in seconds Friday, reducing the structure at
North Korea's nuclear reactor into a pile of rubble. It was a
choreographed show by the communist regime meant to affirm an
intention to stop making atomic bombs.
From a distance, smiling diplomats from the United States and other
nations snapped photos of the blast that destroyed part of the heart
of the North's nuclear weapons program.
"As you all saw, the cooling tower is no longer there," said Sung Kim,
the U.S. State Department's top expert on the Koreas who attended the
demolition. "This is a very important step in the disablement process,
and I think it puts us in a good position to move into the next
phase."
