Griff, why can't you accept it's about pulling a nation away from an ultra-statist antilibertarian political order into a more libertarian one? -- stipulating that it isn't completely libertarian. That is the chiefest point I see in the entire affair, myself. Indeed, I think it eclipses any other consideration. And that looks to be about what this Administration has as a goal, rather than this conspiracist stuff about how it's all for the benefit of the oil companies. That's too lame for me to believe -- it's been alleged over and over and over, without supporting evidence, just the standard conspiracy-peddlers' suggestion that the reader connect the dots. Which in its turn relieves the conspiracist of the necessity of coming up with the provable connections himself.
Anyway, that is why this libertarian likes what some Republicans are doing. Conspicuously in contrast, the Democrats haven't.
