In this week's Off The Cuff podcast, Chris and Charles Hugh Smith discuss:

• The Impact Of Natural Disasters
  • There are always surprise ramifications
• Unequal Oversight
  • Corporations skate free while individuals get nailed
• Why The Government Allows Corporate Rackets
  • There's just too much money in play
• Where Is The Tipping Point?
  • When does the abused populace say "No more!"

The government is not famous for its efficiency, or for its fairness. In many cases, that's intentional -- particularly when you look at the incentives in play. Charles explains why our crony capitalist system is allowed, and even protected from enforcement: it's simply too cheap for corporations to influence government policy, regulation and oversight.
