• The first comes from the always-worth-reading Caelum et Terra blog points that out quite well:  But They Want to Cut Medicare? The only thing that likes big government more than the bureaucracy is big business.

• The second comes from Mickey Kaus over at The Daily Caller:  Too Big to Bust? The problem with crony capitalism goes beyond simple corruption into an erosion of the very idea of the rule of law itself.
