Scalia Strikes Out
Ruling for auctions over elections Scalia swung and missed again: Campaign finance reform? Strike Two! Strike One occurred nine years ago when he crowned and appointed dumb "W." Strike Three renames us "The U.C.", The United Corporations. How better to accommodate all of Goldman Sachs' aspirations? Deregulate derivatives; foreclose on all sub-primes. Penalties for overdrafts? Predetermined prison times… Auctions, not elections, for vacant Senate seats? Of course there won't be many when all incumbents are repeats With tenure, if they're breathing, and have done as they were told – Though not with any limits on how often they're resold. A Congress of employees; a Senate of part-timers. No broken campaign promises to chalk up to Alzheimers. You think you might incorporate so you can have a say? Not unless you first bid for a Moodys Triple A.
