Watching Democrats. June 15, 2012 2:12 pm bowser

Watching things like drug programs and the breaks given oil companies has led me to believe that the mega-corporations try to elect Republicans.

And where they can’t elect Republicans they buy Democrats.

It doesn’t make any real difference to them.

The notion that the small person can change anything, that their vote counts, is a myth.  Nothing is going to change the direction of the country and/or it’s economy, just the speed of the process.

And that not by much.
