While claiming to be pro-business this Op-ed regular consistently sides with big government.

For some reason I have not become at all callused to these contradictions.

Any former pro-big government people here that can explain to me how fairly intellegent people can believe that big-government and business can be compatable? Are they truly able to ignore the contradictions or are they deliberately trying to have their cake and eat it too?

In other words: "I, for one, welcome our new overlords."

Business can be compatible with big government, so long as your idea of business means getting favors from the government. In terms of Atlas Shrugged characters, this guy is like Orren Boyle.
