RUSH: Here is Mark in Houston. Glad you called, sir, you're next on the EIB Network. Hello.CALLER: Mega dittos from the current president and CEO of my own minority. Rush, I'd just like to say that socialism is big business. It's bigger than Big Oil; it's bigger than Big Tomato, and Big Union. It's not about equality for individuals or the kumbaya liberals.
