When big companies go to governments to get laws passed, how do they do it?
"Campaign Contributions" and paying lobby groups.
"Campaign contributions" is just another word for paying politicians
to do what you want, rather than what they should be doing according to their
employers (for governments, that would be the people: They work for us, not the
other way around). ie: A Bribe.
What part of that is a leap?[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

While I agree that some of our congresscritters probably would benefit from a
good partitioning, I believe that PJ was arguing that you should
petition your congresswomen and congressmen. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Somehow, I don't think that partitioning politicians is legal. OTOH, since
bribing politicians is legal, then perhaps partitioning them is also legal.

The only difference between a campaign contribution and a bribe, is that a bribe
is giving for a specific, one time only, purpose. A campaign donation is given
to cover a plethora of requests done over a period of time. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
