Fredselfish ( @Fredselfish@lemmy.ml ) English4•1 year agoHow many politicians were bought off before the "pressure " funny how corporations are apparently more powerful than the governments of the EU.
Dubious_Fart ( @Dubious_Fart@lemmy.ml ) English0•1 year agoIts not just the EU.
Fredselfish ( @Fredselfish@lemmy.ml ) English1•1 year agoOh as an American I know all to well how corrupt our government is and how corporations own them.
Dubious_Fart ( @Dubious_Fart@lemmy.ml ) English0•1 year agoAnd how some senators sell out their constituents for as little as 5 cents a head.
Fredselfish ( @Fredselfish@lemmy.ml ) English0•1 year agoYes so fucked up. Not only letting them destroy the planet but do it so cheaply.
Dubious_Fart ( @Dubious_Fart@lemmy.ml ) English1•1 year agoIts even more fucked up to think that if everyone in america donated a dollar to a bribery fund, we could buy back our politicians. Thats how little we are worth to them.
Fredselfish ( @Fredselfish@lemmy.ml ) English1•1 year agoUnfortunately they still vote against us. So be throwing our money away. Because if that would work we already have the working mans Pac and be doing just that.

These guys are literally the villains from captain planet. Like actually genuinely evil.
Bread ( @Bread@lemmy.ml ) English1•1 year agoThis was honestly one of the key things in my head that made the EU better than the US. That they protect their citizens and nature at least so far as to ban toxic chemicals. Neoliberal society really just drops the ball when things get tough.
