With the November elections over, the cycle continues. For the foreseeable future in Maine and nationally the Republicans will be in the majority. They’ll wear out their welcome and the Democrats will return. The Democrats will lose favor and the Republicans will get another shot. It will go on and on -- to think otherwise is naive.

Many people believe we live in a pro-market society where the agenda aims at encouraging the best business conditions for everyone. The reality is we live in a pro-business society where the agenda aims at maximizing the profits of existing firms. This occurs through public policy and legislation written to favor certain firms within each industry in return for political contributions, i.e. cronyism. This is a problem that crosses party lines, and should increase in intensity with the Republican’s recent election success.
