Calm your hormones. Take a deep breath. Go out and grab some fresh air. Then realize that you didn't disagree at all with what I said. All you suggested was that other businesses do it too. If all you had said was "yeah, the tort lawyers use political money to the Democrats to prevent tort reform, and the power companies use political money to stop more stringent pollution control laws (I don't know whether they give mostly to Repubs, or pretty generously to both, as most business interests do), and the drug companies use political money to prevent the average Joe from buying cheaper drugs from Canada, and . . . " I would have agreed totally. But instead you go off on a tirade. This is a Moderate Forum -- moderate your voice!
