What’s so bad about lobbyism?! Isn’t it all about: "You walk my dog? – I take care of your flowers" ?! Well, seriously, it would be just as nice if politicians would have no resposibility for their people. (Do they…?)
In practice it reads more like: "I heard about the trouble you have with all these press articles concerned with your sex affairs. That’s a pitty. We’re all human after all, aren’t we? As you know we control the majority of media out there…" And so on and so forth.
That’s called lobbyism, a good thing for the economy, so for all of you… Even if lobbyists have enough money to buy any politician, any news agency, any scientific proof, that’s good for you. That’s no conspiracy, no, far away.
The media alone decides how to call it. The media decides weather the war in Palestine is a ‘act of humanity’ or a ‘genozide’. The media decides weather the influence of Big Pharma on Codex Alimentarius is an act of conspiracy or ‘good’ lobbyism.
In fact, it is even worth: because all the media is privately owned, if you have enough money you may ask: "Can you walk my dog, I take care of your flowers?" … The result is commonly known as a manipulation called propaganda. ("Incubators…"?!) So you probabely never read any relevant information about Codex Alimentarius in ‘free’ press or VT.
So nether the press nor the politicians are ‘free’ because they need money. Money from those who can provide it. In a perfect world all citicens pay taxes and the government has no problem paying interest. In a not_so_perfect world debth may increase over time. At the end it turns out that the money you are offering to your government is only a fraction of what is needed.
But – help is in sight! You name it! TNC’s (trans-national companies) provide the means and lend your government a helping hand. There’s only one little thing. They kindly ask your government to walk their dog… An offer most politicians find irresistable, even if in the end some of you, my dear poeple, will have to go.
That’s a nessessity, there are too much of us here. One day, you’ll understand. Ok?
