which seem well founded enough, but I would think any ceasing of catering to big business would have to be accompanying by campaign finance and lobbyist reform. I mean, it's quite a balancing act our Democratic representatives must perform when funding for political campaigns is so critical and has such an agreeably disagreeable role in our election process.

I wouldn't hesitate to suggest after all this noise about the deficit and debt it wasn't all just smoke and mirrors to put campaign finance reform on the back burner.

It's nowhere on the radar now..
