The undue influence of Big Pharma, undue influence of the NRA, undue influence of Big Oil, undue influence of big chemical companies & Big Ag, undue influence of health insurance companies, and undue influence of the military industrial complex is literally killing Americans.

Maybe we should call corporate political donations and lobbying what they are - bribes. Bribery is illegal. Why is lobbying okay. I know, of course, because the bribe takers write the laws.

Just don't see any hope in sight of anything changing. I am in my mid 30s now and I have increasingly became more negative about everything. What you mentioned, we all know it is bad but it just keeps getting worse. Cornel West says America is a "failed social experiment"

No, that’s what they want you to feel! Don’t go there! It’s a psychological battle more than anything. We can make it better. Abolitionists got there, the suffragettes got there, the civil rights movement got there, and we’re gonna get there.

This is been going on for 40 years and it started with the Republicans, so enough with that.

Ms. Williamson, please do not ignore undue influence of corrupt politicians and pretenders. Please feel free to categorize yourself when convenient.

Marianne, please help with the racist, stupidity of today's republicans --My grown up kids are being drawn into dark depths of republican selfishness and, damn, this freaks me out.

It’s more than undue influence-it’s absolute control. Must know stat: Swiss Federal Inst of Tech analysis of over 46,000 transnational corporations concluded 147 companies control 40% of worldwide assets; 737 of them control 80%. (10/22/2011 Forbes) They OWN US House/Senate
