18. But it is practical to outlaw lobbying by professional lobbyists...

and -- I personally think it is time to throw the bums out, and burn the constitution and write a new one.

And what I mean by throw the bums out, is to fire the entire government structure, and by non-violent anarchist means create and orderly transformation of society -- by democratic means, such as write a new constitution, that deals with modern day realities.

A lobbyist of today is just a professional briber: a bribe is a bribe is a bribe -- no matter how many lawyers, make it sound legal.
