        pull your head out of your ass.

        we’re in tough as it is, and here’s you antagonizing someone who wants what we do.

    Again inserting themselves in between a small and free process to make the process huge, cumbersome, and expensive, all so that a few rich assholes van become richer.

    Lobbying as it exists now should be prohibited and replaced with something where people can publicly call attention to something for politicians to decide on, but everything has to be public,and not a single penny or gift or favor may ever be traded

    As expected.

    Those of us who want it need to band together and have a louder voice than the tax filing leeches.
