Then there’s the carpet bagger and homegrown politicians who can reach into their own pocket and buy a Governorship or Senate seat. The copper barons are now replaced by digital wealth that buys all the free speech they, alone, can afford.
What a system! Fiat money rules.

They can only buy a seat if YOU vote them into it….

No. I do not vote for these self-serving posers, but they still get elected.

Larry – That’s why they get elected. DUH! If YOU and others who believe like you believe and state and you do NOT get out and vote, then we end up with the candidates we don’t like or want This year – go vote!

I voted before I made that reply. I vote every time. I just try to avoid voting for the ones who are buying their way with vast personal fortunes, especially the carpetbaggers.
