Misplaced focus

Too bad Sen. Orrin Hatch isn't taking his arguments against the BCS and using them against the banks and Federal Reserve. It wouldn't take much to rewrite his lines for a seven-second news quip and attack the real problems of this country. Instead, we get big banks gobbling up little ones, which leads to this bogus notion that they are "too big to fail." I thought the beauty of capitalism was the poorly run companies go out of business. But that is not so in a fascist state. Congress fiddles as our financial structures burn, but just as long as they can keep the masses attending the circuses, it appears "all is well."
