Crony Capitalism 

n. Crony capitalism is a colloquial term describing a "market economy" in which success in business depends on close relationships between business people and government officials. It may be exhibited by favoritism to connected businesses in the distribution of legal permits, government grants, special tax breaks, and so forth. This favoritism is rewarded by campaign contributions or outright kickbacks to politicians or their supporters. As such, it creates an oxymoron of sorts, in that success of a business in a free market (capitalism) does not depend on free-market forces. It is also a obvious source of corruption of both business and government.

In the United States, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are examples of Crony Capitalism. Government backing let Fannie and Freddie dominate mortgage underwriting. The politicians created the mortgage giants, which then returned some of the profits to the politicians - sometimes directly, as campaign funds; sometimes as "contributions" to favored constituents.

Crenzy 

You find this name unusual when you think of it, a type of guy that sees himself as a nobody in the world and is filled with low self esteem. He would picture what it's like to die at least once, and yet he wouldn't mind taking the risk. He's not like any other. He's a best friend; a guy that will have your back no matter what they are, he will stick with you through thick and thin. And when you try to push him away, he won't try to pull you in, because he knows you'll come back when you need him. He will always be the shoulder to cry on, just by the conversation he gives, you'll fall in love with him without knowing. He's a dad; he can be protective of you no matter where you're going, who you're going with, and when you're coming back. He will treat you like a child calling you cute names till you get embarrassed. He can be the first man that will love you and will always be the last. He will fall in love with every part of your body, because he knows you're insecure about them. In the end, he will never bore you. He can act as a child, but it will be the type of child that you would love to take care of, because he can make you smile. Above all, he's a dreamer and beneath that chest of his is the heart of a prince. He will never give up on you without a fight, a risk, a chance. He will keep pulling you in to his life whether you like it or not, because he has been through a lot. Try finding a guy named Crenzy, he can change your life forever like he did on mine..

croney mingler 

Crony Mingler
cro•ny (krô'nç)
n.
A longtime close friend or companion.
Possibly from Greek khronios, long lasting, from khronos, time.

min•gler (mĭng'gəlr)
n., pl. -ers.
One who joins or take part with others: The minglers mingled with their cronies.
Middle English menglen, frequentative of mengen, to mix, from Old English mengan.

Croney mingler refers to groups of people who gather in public areas and occupy space without an ostensible purpose. This term most often refers to people between the ages of 12 and 20, the unemployed and or trustees who coalesce in public places such as shopping centres, parks, or cafés. Crony mingling can also be quite prevalent in areas that have heavy tourist traffic, i.e., beach towns, ski towns or small historical towns where bored aimless locals are attracted by a continual influx of non-locals with whom they can interact for entertainment value. Often this interaction is one sided and involves incredulous looks, smirks and a palpable air of their own coolness that radiates around an approximate twenty foot radius of any given space where they stand. Crony minglers are generally harmless and if treated with caution and respect can often be quite helpful with information on where to acquire black market goods.

The croney minglers at the skate park flipped their emo haircuts and mumbled in contempt at the site of the lost tourist who asked them for directions.
