THE MYTH OF "FREE ENTERPRISE"
Discussion and Analysis from a Socialist Perspective
Corporate America is all for "letting the market work" until the economy crashes and their profits are threatened. Then they're the first in line for billions of dollars in government aid, while hundreds of thousands of people losing their houses get nothing. Learn how and why "free enterprise" is a myth today.
Also: The SCHIP Battle for Healthcare
Bush says that spending $35 billion over 5 years to extend healthcare to 10 million uninsured children would be "irresponsible." That is the same amount spent in less than 3 months of the Iraq war. Hear a report on the battle for the state children's health insurance program.
