        pugjesus,

        Are you proposing that the voice of individuals is being represented well against the voice of wealthy donors/business owners? That doesnt seem realistic, right?

            I read a lot of the “fucking” article (your words). It attempts to disprove a number of studies at once with flimsy analysis. The conclusion of their line of reasoning is that the will of the people is being represented just fine in congress. Seems false on the face of it to any observer of congress’s actions, and the events of the last election. Hence my question. Did YOU read the article.

              … it only rebuts one study, and it does so by citing three others.

              So you didn’t read the article. Or even skim it.

              The conclusion of their line of reasoning is that the will of the people is being represented just fine in congress.

              Lord.
