If Corporations can now influence (buy) elections directly, do they really need to buy individual politicians? If I were a fat-creep CEO, I would tell the dude or dudess with his/her hand out to go suck a pig. All the Corps need do is promote fear-fear-fear and the common folk will fall all over themselves to vote against themselves. This is win-win for business........they will save a stack of money in the long haul. Will all the lobby crowd be getting pink slips? Just some thoughts............
2. they can buy the election to have their puppet elected
then their puppet works for them on a daily basis in office. they are insuring their own reps in congress with no veil of being the People's representatives
3. There is a populist issue Obama could get the majority of
Americans Republican and Democrat to back. I think nearly everyone can agree we have to get lobbyist and money out of politics, this country has become ungovernable. Will anybody do it? Nooooooo
