I can afford to take out a full page ad in the St. Pete Times, the homeless guy at the bus shelter can't ... so my freedom of speech should be curtailed until he is a little more flush?

Interesting comment. Do you think we should abolish the Senate then? How can we justify 2 Senators for each state when states are so unequally divided in population. The little (less populated) states have extraordinary power in the Senate - they certainly bring in less tax money. Or for that matter, why do we have winner take all Electoral systems for the President in most states? Why do we have the electoral system anyway?
