Governence By Cash.

Well, the good news is that the Supreme Court is ending it's current session. The bad news is that it'll be starting another one in the not too distant future and the other bad news is that during this session, it has sold the election process of America to corporate interests, apparently on the assumption that corporations are people too. So, the work of an employee of one of the judges, many years ago, giving corporations that distinction, has firmly become law. What that means is that you and I have almost no say in what elected officials do, because we don't have the financial clout that corporation have and can bring to bear. What we do have that corporations don't have is a vote. Now, you'd think that would be enough to get heard. Well, I'm here to tell you it isn't enough. Try getting an audience with a Senator or Congressman. How come? Because elections are decided, not by the number of votes a politician gets, but by the amount of money he or she can rake in to buy votes and elections. So, since money buys elections, and corporations have money to spare, to the victor goes the spoils. Or to put it another way, corporations write the legislation and then tell our elected officials how to vote. And let me be clear, they will vote as they are told or risk not having enough money to get reelected. So, let me ask you. Do you think Congressmen and Senators will vote as they are told by their moneyed sponsors? Ya, I think so to.
