Certainly the process of legislation is as important as the intent if desired results are expected; that is, if the blue wave is huge enough to flood the zone with enough true-blue representatives who have their hearts in the right place and their heads screwed on straight.

Though it's nearly impossible to accomplish a damn thing when, for instance, consolidated and corporatized Big Media have convinced a lethargic public that it's -- OH MY GOD! Screaming chryons! -- shock-and-awe breaking news that only one percent of Democratic Senators (Manchin and Sinema) are thwarting progress. While it's so ho-hum, just more of the same, such a boring state of affairs to report that 100 percent of Republicans -- in both houses of Congress -- thwart meaningful change at every opportunity with every breath and have been doing so right out in the open for decades. Look over there, not here. Simply shocking, I tell you!

Well said. The underlying problem is the corrupt SCOTUS legalizing judges and other politicians selling decisions, votes, and influence to the highest bidding citizen in 1976, then when that brought in truckloads of bribes, the corrupt SCOTUS legalizing judges and other politicians selling decisions, votes, and influence to the highest bidding CORPORATION in 1978, then when that REALLY increased their bribes, the corrupt SCOTUS legalized SECRET purchasing of judges and other politicians in 2010, which allowed foreign governments to buy.

Just yesterday, yes yesterday, the corrupt SCOTUS legalized judges and other politicians OPENLY selling decisions, votes, and influence by allowing anyone who wants to own them to reimburse money they spent on themselves AFTER being elected. It's a wonderful new addition, you can purchase the winner AFTER THEY WIN, which is WAY more cost effective because the money goes right into the pocket of the judge or other politician you purchase. That's WAY more cost effective than betting on victory.

My investment company either created or pushed the creation of financial instruments that several a direction in market move.

I told my investment company to look into creating a financial instrument to purchase our entire government, then we voters could earn $2,500 per dollar invested like other investors.

The Supreme Court is a sick joke, with a majority of jesters, fools, and corporate stooges, pawning themselves off as fair and impartial. When in reality, they're nothing but a secret "star chamber" of highly partisan religious nuts in robes lording over a phony democracy. And, laugh out loud, Roberts is worried about the legitimacy of his court?! Sorry, that ship sailed and sunk long ago, Cap'n.
