12. It's more than 'a problem', Senator.

And, just as other businesses have manipulated our governing bodies with money and other 'perks', these guys will get their way.

Because money talks louder than anything else here. And, their money is loud.

Because we say it is. (That is what burns me the most. The 'power' of money is that we say it has power. That's it.)

Good luck stopping them, Senator. The first thing would be to make sure that these tech bros don't start corrupting local elections. That is how they set up roadblocks to regulation.
