Why is it that the first thing the privatizers ask for, when converting a public program into a source of profit for themselves personally, is a subsidy from taxpayers like you and me for "transition costs"? It happened when Medicare pharmaceuticals were privatized, it's part of the game plan for the Social Security phase-out, and it's going to happen if the wingers kill Amtrak, too.

You'd think—call me crazy—that the wingers think taxpayer dollars are a big pile of cash that we left them for them, so they could stuff their pants with it just as fast as they can.

Looting—after lying, it's what the wingers do best!

Funny how nobody's bringing up those conflict of interest stories about Wolfie right now, isn't it?
