Okay, I realize I’m cynical, but

stuff like this only makes me feel like a realist:

If you want to read the whole article, go to:

This stuff only fortifies my belief that too many people making government decisions have hands up their asses. What kind of society do we live in when these kinds of money puppets put the health of the corporation over the health of individuals?

Makes me feel like I could use a pill….
