Let the big dog eat"

Steve Benen, "Jeb Bush’s economic plan: ‘Let the big dog eat’", MSNBC 9/11/2015:
Republican
presidential hopeful Jeb Bush unveiled his tax-cut plan this week, and
when making the pitch to voters, the former governor has said it’s time “to let the big dog eat.” It’s a phrase Bush is apparently quite fond of.
He told reporters
on Wednesday that “let the big dog eat” is a Florida phrase, though I
can report that I’m a Florida native – and I haven’t the foggiest idea
what he’s talking about.
This phrase has been widely interpreted to mean "Greed is good — let rich people take and keep as much money as they want", which seem like a remarkably frank, not to say tone deaf, thing for a presidential candidate to say . . . .When I say "smart" I mean comparatively smart.
