There is ONE simple goal in lobbying...to influence publicly elected Govt officials, (that hold the power needed to effect change), for what the corporations are wanting.

$1 = 1 vote is what it is. We have a ‘unfettered free market’ democracy. As much as the market will bear. It’s ridiculous to defend.

George Orwell likely said it best, “In our time, political speech and writing are largely the defence of the indefensible”.

The law isn't illegal. A law, by definition, cannot be illegal. It can be ruled unconstitutional but not illegal. The maroons arguing that a previous law says something else are forgetting that a basic principle of conflicting laws is that the latest one enacted supercedes.
