Change Congress and Lawrence Lessig have it 100% right; as long as private money is allowed in the US government, we’re screwed.

Today’s evidence:

1) Want the Republican right-wing think tanks to justify your position? Only 2 million dollars!

2) Banks and Wall Street financial concerns buy Republican Party’s support with campaign contributions. Coupla Democrats in there with their hands out, as well. And with the usual suspects running the show, and the overseers too stupid and greedy…

3) Major Democratic policymaker holding special sale; his vote and recommendation on health care go to the highest bidder, although everyone with a vote on the floor gets something.
