The Yes We Can man is in bed with the most powerful interest groups in the US and yet my posting is the problem lol. If this happened under Romney or Bush administration, you guys would be tripping over yourselves to express your outrage, yet when the We Are Different guy does it, the board is awfully quiet after virtually every non-leftie has either been banned or gave up on posting.
I guess dressing up the bill as "pro-people" is good enough, gotta give credit to Democrats, they know how to pander to their target group and package their crap in a fancy wrapping paper so the base swallows it up.

Well I'll go this far with agreeing with you, the American political system has gone to the crapper because it's been bought and sold to big business. The only difference between the two parties is that one has completely sold out while the other has only partially sold out.
The difference between us is that I don't believe in giving business carte blanche to run things however they want. I believe they need controls like everything else in our society otherwise their greed rules. Have a look at Itse's post to see how big business is set up to fail if they continue with their strategies. No one will be able to afford their products.
