Wealthy controling our govt

the new yorker came out with a story that talked about a secret meeting between several billionaire liberals, including George Soros, in aspen. The purpose was to 'use their fortunes to engineer the defeat of President Bush' Theres also been a lot of controversy over the millions put into 527s. Just want to hear what people think, or if anyone even cares, I mean this is NS and I would get more attention with a post with said 'fuck kerry'

 
it means nothing to me. bush gets a bunch fromt he wealthy, kerry gets a bunch, they offset each other.

It means something to me when a whole bunch of billionaires get to together consiring with eachother... It's different when you use your money indivdually to support a cause, but when several people get together in order to sway a vote it's an entirely different thing. Although... If the voting process is as secure as they say it is they could spend their entire fortunes in pursuit of thier goals, but when it comes down to it, it will be the voter, from the poorest person, to the members of this interest group that will make the decision... It's sad how people feel they can control peple with money, well, you cam... But it's a sad state of being...

If they really wanted to sway the election, they'd offer all the non-voters 500 bucks to vote for their candidate. Immoral? Certainly. Illegal? Probably. But it's big business... what the hell did you expect?

By the way, when you cater to the rich as much as this admin does, and they're STILL against you, it makes you wonder... why would people who have so much to gain from a reelection want to get rid of Bush?

shit thats nothing compared to the funding bush gets from the saudi's. Bush's campaingn has either 15 or 25 million put into it (cant remember which) and Kerry has 2 million put into his. The wealthy control aloooooot more than that, and their not open about it either.

-STARMAN DIED IN VAIN!
 
ill have you know sonny jim, that theres a secret society of the five wealthiest people in the world, known as the pentaverat, who control everything in the world, including the newspapers, who meet tri-annually at a secret colorado mansion known as 'the meadows'

the meadows...so, whos in this 'pentaverate'?

THE QUEEN, THE GETTYS, THE LOFTCHILDS, THE VATICAN, and,colonel sanders, before he went tits up... oh, i hated the colonel, with his wee beady eyes, and that smug look on his face... 'oohhh, you want to buy my chicken, ohhhhh'

ooookay, cookoo...

-i apologize for any inaccuracies in the precceding quote... it was off the top of my head.

Foregoing? I think you meant preceding there, Mr. Myers. But CNAP's right, it's become more of a quasi-oligarchical polyarchy than anything else... the many selecting their favourite rich guy from a selection of two, and no guarantee (see last election) that their selection will end up being the leader. Democracy? Yeah, sure. Keep telling yourself that.

Never heard that definintion before... He's a witch! BURN HIM! So anyways, just to get totally off-topic here, if I had a video of a DNC speech, and wanted to upload it on my web hosting thingy, would it be illegal? Cause I think the network might still have copyright. Am I wrong?

Dude, you're Canadian, and we're not China, it's not like you're divulging any state secrets... Do network copyright laws go across international borders?

this is far fetched, but if the wealth gain too much polotical power, america could soon have an aristrocracy. This situation is similar to that of the jacksonian era and bank of us
