Stephan:   One of the good things to come out of this year's electoral process, at least I hope it produces a good result, is the awakening many have had as to how truly corrupt and rigged our democracy has become. Citizens United to my mind, at least since Dred Cott v. Sanford, is arguably the worst decision ever made by the Supreme Court -- although Bush v Gore is right up there.  This report should outrage you. A nation of 317 million people is having the course of their lives determined by a self-selected committee of the uber-rich. The issue to me is not their positions, some are social progressives, many more Rightists, but that there are only a handful of them.  This is what Neo-feudalism looks like. This is what the Founders or their families had come to North America to get away from.
