    I need both a Luigi emoji and a guillotine emoji, for no apparent reasons.

    Hmmm, I wonder why the major media outlets have failed to call this out?

    Something something … it is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it …etc.

    That’s why for YEARS, I have been saying that Campaign Finance Reform is the issue from which ALL other issues flow.

    Billionaires pay a miniscule, totally unnoticeable percentage of their fortunes to strongly, relentlessly lobby for laws,.rules, regulations, loopholes, tax breaks, etc. that will bring them even more money, many more times than what they invested.

    Lobbying, and trading favors for campaign donations, has to end, it is literally the reason behind nearly every bad thing in our country, and it is only getting worse.

    An election without a lottery option cannot provide consent of the governed. Oligarchic Elections are the governmental equivalent of a rapist asking you where you’d prefer to take it, which honestly explains a lot about the current rapist ruler.
