Pretty much.

$284,158,644 — that's how much the Oil & Gas industry has "donated" to members of Congress over the last 20 years so they can continue destroying our planet for profit. If we don't end the fossil fuel industry, it will end us. apnews.com/article/science-o…

My question is how much have the "democracy reformers" donated to the "level playing field" in election information? We can get big money out of elections we just need to build a social campaigning platform that connects candidates and voters directly. I'd be happy to demo.

How much went into your bank account?

By all means, lets go back to pre-fossil fuel days, and watch what’s left of the world’s forests disappear overnight. Not to mention all the deaths from cold and starvation. Brilliant.

And ... In order to end the POWER OF THE FOSSIL FUEL INDUSTRY ... we'll need a Congress that DOESN'T TAKE MONEY FROM CORPORATIONS ... and a President who has the Courage to LEAD!

Are you out of your f'ing mind? The energy and products from oil is one of the driving forces that lifted the human race out of living in mud huts and cooking with bison dung.

"Representative" government in a monetary system will always represent those with the most $$$.

I think Maryanne Williamson should have a seat in Biden’s cabinet. Her environmental positions are spot on.

Plus how many billions in profits to gov't officials in stock dividends?
