    “Donors”

    MUST be renamed

    (Premium)Subscribers

    Tired of this “Donor” bullshit, they are paying to subscribed to access and lobby for their own $elfi$h shit and they dont give a fuck about the country

    They arent donating shit, they’re paying for access and to put tabs on the candidates agenda that basically say “Now dont you be gettin’ too uppity and changing things too fast, (or even at all), now, ya hear?”

    A lot of reprogramming of the American voter is needed to bring big data to heel. So much time and energy had been spent neutering the government (in order to preserve liberty we’re told) that people forget to also neuter big business. Any concern large enough to force one into a nonconsensual interaction needs to be closely looked at and split up if necessary. Industrial policy that does not favor M&As is one thing that can be done right now. The “effeciency” of a business only serves the customers if there is strong competition. Otherwise that efficiency, usually at the cost of an increased differential between labor’s productively and labor’s remuneration, only goes to pad margins.
