Re: Why does Obama consistently appoint industry shills to positions of power?
And why are you blaming Obama for this? The technical term is regulatory capture and it has been happening for decades - well, well before Obama was even on the political playing field.
If you don't believe me, look up "Turkish Airlines 981" (make sure you find all the intricate details).
Our American system of government as been broken a long time. Don't try to pin it on a person that you simply don't approve of at this moment in history.
