I say the most fundamental problem for this country is that certain industry groups and big money control government.
Why does government not do what makes sense, what is good for the nation, what the citizens want, what will solve problems??? Because government does what is good for certain industry groups. Because lobbyists write legislation. Because big money owns politicians.
Why do good Democrats get elected only to be stymied and harassed and pushed until they act like pawns in the lobbyists' game of government manipulation? Because too many other Democrats and essentially all Republicans are owned by industry groups and big money.
Is there a more important, more fundamental problem than this?
