Actually, when the government protects failing business with money or laws, or when the government gives advantages to businesses with money or laws, it's all OK by republicans etc --despite breaking all the supposed "free market" rules. It's only when the government protects citizens with money or laws, that's it's called "socialism" and evil. Personally, I find it odd that a US government will protect certain business from natural competition. Isn't that anti-American? Anti-capitalism? Anti-competition? Protectionist? It was never about a real free market, that's just what it's taught at school. It has always been the case that who has the money makes the rules, and has the government do what he wants, including crushing smaller competition.
