Could the real beneficiaries be the Medical Insurance companies that now get to pawn off their costs onto the government? If the Insurance Industry lobby did this, the Democrats made it sound "humanitarian" and "progressive".
Then again it appears we've just witnessed the biggest daylight heist in modern history right before our very eyes, a stimulus that looks more and more like the banker bailout of 2008, the criteria to apply for any large corporation that bought back it's own stock with borrowed money at the lowest rates of all time.
We have the entire US Congress to thank for the former qualification. I've always considered Congress to be the weakest link in our current manifestation of a republic. The herd mentality is strong with them, drawn to the largest donors ore led at their behest by partisan hacks.
The temptation for a company to dress up its quarter end books is exacerbated by the latter; favored interest rate loans close to zero, the product of European Central Bank thinkers and alumni of the same counting house that gave rise to the Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999 and the Troubled Asset Relief Program a decade later. Malinvestment has become the code word for those in polite circles defined by the New York Justices and the ability to post regulatory fines as a cost of doing business.
Defined pension plans and small businesses receive little their due. Ten years of QE with none of its predicted growth has left pensions in a pauper's prison holding promises to pay. Ironic, since those issuing the bonds mandate a portion to their very own government, state and municipal plans, the worst of a worsening lot not limited by country of origin.
Small business seems an after thought in this scheme of all things, despite that they employ the lion's share of the labor force, propelling a nation's wealth, currency and prosperity in a manner equitable with its governance - one able to restrain the burden of its existence in proportion to its size and the breadth of its policies.
Non-governmental organizations have become, in recent years, unelected partners in strategies and agendas domestic and foreign, in sectors public, private, or held in secret, always with striking consequence and contradictions. The CDC and WHO are two such entities, as well USAID, Atlantic Council, or almost any "think tank" comprising a particular goal or superfluous funding.
Oligarchical interests cloud the mix further. Bill Gates and Al Gore represent separate movements, both amenable to government largess while sharing identical investments.
With so many branches and departments, the United Nations is the labyrinth within the void; is the Way demarcated by analysis of what control belonging to the individual can be annexed by the State?
All they need is a reason.
