Surprising, yes, but he couldn’t be righter.
Expect the crony-media to give this a good leaving alone.

Good for Gary. Perhaps he would have been good for the US — but we will never know.

Hart is right. Crony Capitalists, for the most part global corporations with global, rather than American interests, are corrupting the electoral process. Invariably they bankroll incumbents as the best bet on their “investment”, and frequently contribute to both parties so regardless of who is elected, they continue to influence policy.

349 corporations were lobbying for same sex marriage.
That doesn’t sound very capitalist to me.

There are many kinds of corruption and the corruption of money in politics might be the least concern. I think guys like Hart just believe the liberal party shoul win every election.

When government at all levels is spending 40+ % of GDP then the government will be corrupt, this isn’t a campaign finance issue it is simply dividing the spoils of corruption.
