As long as Citizens United & Buckley v. Valeo (1978, deregulated lobbying) stand, politics is just a charade to keep us 50/50 so we won’t notice we’re getting screwed by both sides. Biden promised not to personally take lobbyist $, but when asked if he would expect the same of Congress, he laughed and said “HA, SoMeOnE’s been listening to a little too much Bernie.” Had they? Or is Bernie’s “government shouldn’t be bought” ‘conspiracy theory’ looking less conspiratorial with each passing day?
