   Founding Fathers

   It's been a long time since my last U.S. History or Civics class, but I seem to recall that the United States of America is a country "of the people and for the people".
   
   Now, I do know that we're not a true democracy, but a democratic republic, so not every person's opinion counts, but it would seem to me that if significantly more than half of the people living in the country feel one way that the laws should be changed to reflect that.

   Unfortunately those feelings are purely imaginary. These days the United States of America is a country "of the multinational corporation and for the multinational corporation." With the whole slew of big lobbying groups lining the pockets of the Congress, et. al. you'll be lucky if you don't get sued for just sneezing (you may be infringing on some patent or copyrighted material)
