We really need to get the corporate dollars out of elections.
Correct me if I'm wrong.... isn't the hallmark of a "wonderfully efficient capitalistic economy" that everything's for sale? How can you be pro-capitalism and then tell people they can't spend their money as they see fit, whether it's for a new television, an addition to their house, an endowment to give scholarships to prospective schoolteachers, or funding for Republican presidential campaigns? Won't the invisible hand of the marketplace take care of these things?
