The problem with big business is the effects it has on the workers who work there. The unethical things they do to either screw over the American workers or just line their pockets with money. Out-sourcing is not good for the economy. Frying the books is not good for the economy. Forcing smaller businesses out of business is not good for the economy. Reaganomics is not good for the economy. Paul Newman is not a big business, but his products are heads and tails better for the economy than any other big business out there.

Not gone to war. We have enough problems that need to be solves at home before we need to try and solve other people's problems. This may be a Unipolar world now, but that doesn't mean we need to take it upon ourselves to (selectively) police the world.
