What's amazing to me is how cheap US elections still are. You can pretty much buy all of congress or the presidency for a billion, which is a hell of a lot to most people, but not that much to some individuals, and very little to some companies. The return on investment is gigantic.
A man should look for what is, and not for what he thinks should be.

I'm baffled as to why conservatives want to change our liberal-republic into a Plutocratic-republic.
that doesn't seem very conservative.
