If you haven't read Jean Stefancic and Richard Delgado's "No Mercy: How Conservative Think Tanks and Foundations Changed America's Social Agenda", you should. "No Mercy" documents how the New Right Conservatives have set the country's political agenda successfully targeting English Only, Immigration Reform, Race and Eugenics, the abolition of Affirmative Action, Welfare Reform, Tort Reform, and multiculturalism.

Since George W. Bush stiffed us taxpayers for a trillion dollars for Iraq, and he's at it again with a trillion-dollar plan for Wall Street, I guess it's true that history repeats itself. Bill Clinton's deregulation of the banking system is what started this housing and economic crisis.
At the end of the twentieth century, the global diffusion of one important financial service, insurance, was encouraged by deregulation, but it also encountered difficulties where deregulation remained incomplete and where there were many nonregulatory barriers to entry. International insurance was already well developed before 1914.

The plaintiff was an active member of Northwest Airline's frequent flier program for several years until the airline revoked his membership.
