[Vision2020] I do not care about the economy

[Phil Nisbet]

Chas

One of the reasons we have such a problem in the American political system 
now says is the ability of groups and people like Abramhoff and Walmart to 
keep people guessing as to what money they actual give and to who.

Most of the people you list are relying on only the direct contributions to 
political candidates.  Then there are 'educational' PACs and beyond that 
there is the giving to other lobby groups and to advocacy organizations.

So with one hand Walmart gives some small 500-2000 dollar checks to 
candidates and on the other it hands millions to groups advocating removal 
of every single one of the people they sent a check to.  Their objective is 
to be everybody’s best buddy.  The objective is to insure that regardless of 
who comes to power, they have friendlies in office.
