It’s sort of like which was first, the politicians getting into bed with corporations, or, corporations getting into bed with politicians. At this point it is so ingrained in the system I don’t think it matters that much any more. It just has to stop. All I know is that the politicians represent big money. If you ain’t got any money, they don’t represent you. And, it’s not going to get better until we figure out a way to make it painful for them.

That’s what I explained to the OWS guy. We can’t change the corporations as long as what they do is legal, but we can sure as heck change our representatives. Finding good, honest, and decent ones is the seemingly impossible task.
