My 'wet dream' if you will is the day when we have a Congress that will not bow to corporations and will regulate the shit out of them to make sure that they never have influence over anything other than their own office decorations.

Any thing less is just playing into their rich oligarchy-loving hands and assuring our demise in the name of the greed of 1148 people (per the last article I read about the number of people who control the vast majority of wealth in the US), which we seem to be so programmed as to not seeing this take over for what it is.

Business is part of society, not the other way around.
