Working the masses !

Why not have the president have an honest debate instead of working every major proposal like some marketing hustle? Iraq wasn't an imminent threat, but they made it one. Social Security isn't in as bad a shape as they make out to be, but fear always has to be part of the equation. And why does every important proposal turn out to be a boon to the private sector. Iraq War (Haliburton, Defense Contractors , Oil Companies), Prescription Drug (Pharmaceutical, HMOs) Social Security Privatization (Brokerage Houses, Banking Industry).
