Were they allowed, for ulterior reasons, into lawful existence to specifically upset and supersede the basic democratic principle? How does that benefit the lawmakers who promoted it?
Their operating methods and limits of action seem to be governed more by self-determined rules, policies and guidelines rather than being properly controlled by strong laws imposed by government to the benefit of all.
If you could affect the situation, would you be in favour of Super PACs and paid lobbyists being able to influence government or against? less
