Obama gives lobbyists the boot
#18
RE: Obama gives lobbyists the boot
Quote:Stopping lobbyist doesn't protect against corruption.

A lobbyist gains nothing from government actions, its not his job. His employer, is big business... did you read my post? I feel like im just about to restate myself for clarification.

That is exactly my point. This is just another regulation, but corruption will continue. It does however give Obama the illusion of getting something done.
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
