well that aint going to happen, unless the socialists take over (not in this lifetime)

yeah, but its a similar situations with politicians.
But instead of money they are currying favor for future positions for those companies/lobbys.

I just see this as bittersweet, that it takes a former lobbyist to be a match against another lobbyist.

Actually a lot of charities use volunteers.

Antibiotic resistance is mainly due to the misuse and overuse of antibiotics.
Over half the antibiotics in use are used in animal feeds to help fatten animals quicker, not to treat sick animals.

It used to be beards and suspenders ...
