Re: Obama no messiah Yes, corporations are greedy but, that is what they do, make money. The ones who are really to blame are the gov regulators. They are bought and paid for by these same corporations doing their bidding for them. Until campaign contribution reform is implemented, which is probably never, there will be no justice for the people. Until then, all we have is our ability to vote these @$$ holes out of office, so exercise that right! |

| The problem is this bribery is called free speech when it is clear that it is bribery. Bribery is not 'protected speech'.
Any person or company that donates money to a politician and then that politician does something that directly benefits that corporation or person should go to prison along with the politician. Any special interest that crafts a bill for a legislator should be fined no less than $10B and any officers who approved it go to prison.
Treat these activities as what they are...bribery. |

Houston, TX | Yes, I agree. Unfortunately we have a delima here in that no politician will ever vote for a law that will hurt themselves. Therefore, this will never become a reality. |
