I heard one way to cut down on campaign contribution corruption would be a Party Patriotism Tax. 50% of the campaign contribution would go towards the balancing of the fiscal budget as a patriotic gesture by the government for valid candidates towards curing the financial woes of the Federal Government and perhaps limiting the graft and bribery of special interest groups. I’m assuming something similar would work regarding lobbyists? I couldn’t comprehend most of what was said,don’t see how it could be done nor can imagine congress even considering such a thing.
Go through your list of companies you feel are working against us. You’d be suprised how many get money from the government. That money, by the way comes from taxpayers and is what fiscal conservatives are against. Oh, and look at who those companies donate to… I bet you’d be shocked.

Carmen’s cute when she smiles… too bad she’s always either sad, grumpy or serious.

Funny, I hear liberals aspiring to greater things, but constantly put down as “dreamers”.

Winslow beautifully sums up the PC scourge: “Are you allowed to say that?” And the PC answer invariably is “NO!” Mindless thugs and bullies….

What makes you so special? Why all this talk of the 1%? Do you ignore the fact that 85% of the millionares out there are 1st generation millionares?
Do you also ignore the fact that you are selfish, because you fall into the world’s richest 1%. Why is it only the American 1% you condemn?
What if the world’s 99% went after you the way you go after the American 1%?
But it’s ok, keep burying your head in the sand.
