Cat costa spaga pentru o lege absurda?
In continuare postarii Senatul SUA voteaza azi o lege care introduce gradinaritul in ilegalitate, ce facea referire la legea votata pe sest, in timpul noptii, de senatorii americani, S 510, la presiunea marilor carteluri corporatiste din domeniul alimentatiei si agriculturii, o lege ce prevede, printre altele, trecerea in ilegalitate a activitatii de gradinarit, asadar o lege cu efecte de genocid, am gasit spagile defalcate primite de senatorii americani pentru a vota aceasta lege, spagi numite "lobby" in patria democratiei SUA.
Fiindca in SUA sursele de finantare a activitatiii senatorilor sunt supuse unui control mai drastic, aceste viramente de bani sunt mai transparente decat la noi, asa ca pentru a lua o forma legala, sunt infasurate in ambalajaul numit "lobby", sau contributii la campania senatoriala sub forma de lobby.
Iata mai jos doua liste, una defalcata pe fiecare senator cu spaga aferenta, iar alta identificand de la cine vin spagile, adica pe profilul in care activeaza corporatiile care au "donat" sumele si cat reprezinta:
