If lobbyists like something I know it’s awful.
It amazes me how we all just normalize the idea that whoever gets to fund raise the most has the best chances to get elected.
When money has more of an influence on who gets elected … it isn’t a democracy … it’s a plutocracy, a government system based on money and wealth.
Democracy ended when
lobbyingbribery became legal and normalized.I’m still waiting for someone to explain to me the honest difference between lobbying and bribery aside from small nuance.
Has some “corporate wants you to find the differences in these two pictures” energy.
Lobbying is just corporate bribery with confusing language
And this is how you can tell he’s for the people and cares about regular Canadians and their dinner-table issues.
