US: The Corporate Conservative Administration

Laptop Battery Compassionate conservativism?

"Computer industry analysts estimate that some 60 percent of all corporate data exists only on desktop and laptop computers, " said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "Incorporating Acronis True Image with New Mexico Software backup server is the ideal solution to capture that corporate data and ensure that it is not lost. While traditional server backups are effective for protecting server data, every company should have a combination of server and workstation backup plans."

Thinkpad Try corporate conservativism. It's corporate conservatism that is going to be the defining feature of the Bush White House.

Back in the proverbial "stone age" it was a truism that he who controlled the corporate data center controlled the corporate data. Since then we've seen the explosive growth of desktop computers, laptops, personal data assistants, cell phones that can run corporate applications, and removable USB drives that hold from 16 MB to 120 GB. Today, some 60 percent of all corporate data lives outside the data center on users' computers and devices. Today, nothing defines the modern road warrior more than his or her laptop and gadgets.

Microsoft Pushing beyond the corporate corrupting frontiers blazed by the Clinton administration, the Bush team is making clear that it intends to deliver on its campaign promises to strengthen Big Business's grip over government policy-making.

Laptop Computers The Bush cabinet is drawing on corporate executives as much or more than any previous administration. Andrew Card, set to be Bush's chief of staff, moves to the White House from a posting as General Motors vice president. Previous to that position, he ran the auto industry's lobby shop. Bush has tapped Paul O'Neill, chair of Alcoa, to head his Treasury Department. Bush crony Don Evans, the Commerce Secretary-designee, is CEO of Tom Brown, Inc., an oil company. Donald Rumsfeld, the Bush nominee to head the Pentagon, is former CEO of G.D. Searle and of General Instrument, and has held a variety of other top corporate posts. Bush's nominee for Veterans Affairs Secretary, Anthony Principi, is president of a wireless telecommunications company. National Security Adviser-designate Condoleeza Rice is a member of the board of directors of Chevron (which has christened an oil tanker, the Condoleeza Rice) and Charles Schwab, and is a member of J.P. Morgan's International Advisory Council.

The move will include Aplus.Net's Corporate Administration, Accounting, Engineering, Development, Marketing, Server and Domain Administration, and Dedicated Server Customer Care departments. Aplus.Net's dedicated server data center will remain in San Diego. The Aplus.Net sales team will also stay in San Diego, moving to a new address in the same ZIP code in early 2007. No changes are planned for Aplus.Net's Sofia, Bulgaria location.

Laptop Computer Of course, both George W. Bush and Dick Cheney (CEO of Haliburton, the oil services firm) themselves both come from the oil industry.

Desktop Computer Bush's transition team is dominated by high donors and corporate interests. Of the 474 individuals on the transition team, 261 made political contributions during the last election cycle, the Center for Responsive Politics reports -- and 95 percent of the $5.3 million they contributed went to Republican candidates or the Republican Party.

Notebooks Even more telling is the overwhelming corporate background of the transition team members.

Lenovo The transition team for the Department of Energy, for example, is almost exclusively made up of people affiliated with or working for the extractive energy industry. Companies and outfits represented include: Phillips Petroleum, Enron, Kennecott, Southern California Edison, the National Mining Association and the Nuclear Energy Institute.

Hard Drive For the Department of Health and Human Services transition, the drug, biotech, insurance and hospital industries are set to have their way. The transition team includes representatives from Merck, the American Hospital Association, Mutual of Omaha, BIO (the biotech trade group), Ernst and Young and the National Association of Health Underwriters.

Travelstar On the Department of Labor transition team, you find two members of the Teamsters, and no other labor-affiliated representatives. Instead, the transition team comes from Union Pacific, the National Restaurant Association, the American Trucking Association, the National Mining Association, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the Society of Human Resource Managers.

Gateway It's unlikely that the transition team members -- at least as a body -- had much influence over Bush's cabinet appointments, but they may well have significant sway in the hiring of second- and third-tier officials. These are the people who get their hands dirty on policy details, and can deliver the goodies to the corporate paymasters.

Laptop Parts More ceremonial posts are being parceled out with a machine-like efficiency to high donors and top fundraisers.

Software Inaugural Committee Co-Chairs Bill and Kathy DeWitt and Mercer and Gabrielle Reynolds come from the Cincinnati-based investment firm Reynolds, DeWitt and Company. Bill DeWitt and Gabrielle Reynolds were co-chairs of the Ohio Bush-Cheney Finance Committee. Other members of the inaugural committee sport similar resumes.

Hard Drives Following in the Clinton-Gore footsteps, Bush-Cheney are soliciting private funds for the inauguration. While Clinton-Gore at least restricted the donations to $100 or less, however, Bush-Cheney are banking on major donors. More than 50 individuals have each contributed $100,000 or more to the inauguration committee.

Electronics Bush's economic summit, held earlier this month in Austin, was actually a get-together with business leaders. The Austin meeting featured 36 top corporate executives, including such major Republican donors as Kenneth Lay of Enron, John T. Chambers of Cisco and Michael Dell of Dell Computer.

As you would imagine, this turn of events has corporate American dancing in the streets. "They are happy, certainly," Jim Albertine, president of the American League of Lobbyists, told the Boston Globe, speaking of his association's members. "There is a strong belief that a lot of things will be reopened."
