5. Dem/Rep as bought

Some people say they're about the same, some say the Dems are only slightly less bought than the Reps . ..
But look at the facts. . . . Remember the Senate the last few years. You had 100% of the Reps voting against every bill that affected business interests in any way . . . . and you had ALMOST all the Dems voting for them . . there were some Dem defectors. So that means MOST Dems supported things that helped the people and NO Reps did. That is not 50-50, or slightly different. That is a major difference. Those are the facts.
